8985FSP/FS/PRC — Instruction Manual 63
Configuration
Locate Module
Selecting Flash from the Locate Module pulldown flashes the yellow COMM
and CONF LEDs on the front of the module so it can be located in the
frame.
Slot Identification
You may identify the module by typing a specific name in the Name field.
The assigned name is stored on the 8900NET module and travels with the
8900NET module if it is moved to another frame. Select
Default to enter the
factory default module name.
An asset identification may be entered in the Asset Tag field. This will appear
on the module Status web page and in the NetConfig inventory report.
Slot Memory
The slot configuration for each media module is automatically saved peri-
odically (once an hour) to the 8900NET module in that frame. You may also
select the
Learn Module Config button at any time to save the current configu-
ration for this slot. The configuration is saved on the 8900NET module. If
the 8900NET module is removed or powered down, the stored configura-
tions are not saved.
When the Restore upon Install box has been checked, the current configuration
saved to this slot is saved as slot memory. When the current module is
removed and another module of the same type and software version is
installed, the configuration saved to the 8900NET module will be down-
loaded to the new module. The box must be checked before the current
module with the saved configuration is removed.
Only the same module type, with the same version software should be
installed in this slot. Inserting a similar module with a different version
software can cause unexpected results.
If a different type of module is installed in this slot, a warning message will
state that the original module type has been replaced with another module
type. In this case, a
Clear button will appear allowing you to clear the stored
configuration from the previous module.
Note Uncheck the Restore Upon Install button before downloading new software.
Frame Health Reports Link
Select the Frame Health Reports link to open the 8900NET module Frame
Alarm Reporting web page. This web page allows configuration of the
alarms and warnings that are reported to the external Frame Health Alarm
connector on the rear of the GeckoFlex frame.
