The WebLink provides certain functionality that is accessible from a Web Browser. In its base configuration, web browser access is primarily limited to basic administrative functions. Based on additional options that may have been ordered with the WebLink, you may have additional features. The features listed below are System options which are available in all WebLink configurations. These features are restricted, however, based on the access rights of the currently logged in user.
The WebLink System - Status page is an excellent quick view of the current status of the system. This page includes multiple sections containing status information as outlined below.
WebLink Status provides information on the core programs on the WebLink (CCMux and CCXMLRPC, and the connection from WebLink to Link device. The CCMux and CCXMLRPC programs should be running in normal conditions. The 'uptime' of CCXMLRPC will be displayed, along with the current time.
The System Status section displays information about the Link device and subsequent field devices. Date/time values from the Link device, as well as other settings such as Master/Slave configuration
Schedule Status is displayed only if the optional 365 day schedule is active. The schedule status section will display the number of events scheduled for the current day, the number of events completed, and events remaining. The time of the last event excecuted is also displayed.
Alarms are displayed which will included any field device failures that have been logged, including panel and/or relay failures. Links are automatically displayed in this section so any problem devices may be further queried.
The System - Panels page provides a method to monitor and control the devices in individual field panels. On the Panels page, a drop down list is displayed of all panels that have been configured in the WinControl software (the WebLink contains a copy of all data configured in WinControl). By choosing a panel from the drop down menu, detailed information is automatically displayed for each load controlled by the relay panel, included current state information. From the panel screen, you may individually control relays, and see their current state. To control a relay, click on the appropriate On or Off button in the Command column. The current state of the load will be indicated by a simple LED like icon, in grey color for off, or yellow for on. If the relay device reports a failure, it will be indicated with a red color. You may click on individual relay numbers to display more detailed relay information.
