User Interface Operation

The IP100 GUI is used to configure the IP100 either locally via a serial port or remotely via a network.

When you start the GUI it will display this window.

IP100 GUI

The GUI screen layout has five main parts:

  1. Menu bar
  2. Navigation pane
  3. Status bar
  4. Forms
  5. Context sensitive help button

The navigation pane is the tree structure on the left side of the main window. It is used to navigate between forms. Each form has a set of related configuration parameters.

Clicking an entry in the navigation pane causes the status bar to be cleared and the form being moved from to be validated. A new status bar message may result if a validation error occurs. If the navigation pane entry that is clicked is for the current form then the same action occurs. This offers a method of validating a form without moving off it.

There is a set of Internal Registers that can be accessed by the IP Mux, Serial Mux, Modbus IP Slave, Modbus Serial Slave, and Digital I/O modes.
