[. . . ] Toggles the Panel Server on or offline. Export Status Offline Encore -- Configuration Manual 209 Section 6 -- Control Panel Configuration Makes the Panel Server application print crosspoint activities to the console of the SCB. The console can be viewed serially or via Telnet. The console output can also be captured to a file using Hyperterminal. When enabled, Alpha Sort will be the default order used to display Sources and Destinations in their list windows. When disabled, the display order is by Source and Destination index number. Simple Crosspoint Logging Alpha Sort Panel Server Redundancy and IP Addresses Redundancy parameters (namely the Mode and IP) can be configured after making the Panel Server offline. Choose the redundancy mode and then choose the partner's EN1's IP address. Make sure the mode and IP addresses on both partners correctly match. For example, suppose, SCB1 with IP address 192. 168. 0. 100 is to be configured as master and SCB2 with IP address 192. 168. 0. 101 to be configured as mirror (slave). On OUI of the Panel Server running on SCB1, choose the mode as Mirror Master and IP as 192. 168. 0. 101. On OUI of the Panel Server running on SCB2, choose the mode as Mirror Slave and IP as 192. 168. 0. 100. Reasons for Loss of Redundancy Sync With Encore 1. 7. 3 and newer software, Control Panel Servers can display the reasons why a redundant pair of CPSs are not in sync. If the mirror and master CPSs report No Sync on the Panel Server screen of the OUI, clicking on the Status text box opens a pop-up window. This window lists the reason(s) preventing synchronization. Users should check both the Master and Mirror CPS to get an accurate and comprehensive list of reasons. If any panels are connected to only the Mirror or Master CPS, the panel names will be displayed in the popup window. A possible solution to this situation is to go to the Panel Network web page of each panel and ensure that the Primary and Secondary server IP addresses are specified correctly. When a CPS starts up or is placed on-line, and when a control panel signs on, the CPSs will go out of sync briefly. The CPSs will indicate an approximate time (in seconds) needed to regain synchronization in the popup window. Panel Server Configuration Save and Load The Panel Server allows multiple configurations to be saved in the Sharer database and easily reloaded by selecting the desired configuration name from the list of saved configurations. These Panel Server configurations 210 Encore -- Configuration Manual Control Panel Server Application include all the individual configurations for all the control panels that Panel Server services. Saving Panel Server Configurations Saving with a New Name 1. From the Panel Server Configuration screen (Figure 131 on page 208), press the Save As button. Enter the name for the new configuration. The Filer-Fax save window then opens(Figure 132). Figure 132. Use the CPS CONFIG or DATABASE as categories because these are the categories with files that can be loaded into the Control Panel Server application. [. . . ] For example, you might create a new configuration object called Clipbox 2 by copying the configuration with the name Clipbox 1. The system broadcasts a message to the network to inform users that the object is obsolete. The object will be completely deleted from your network when the Bin is emptied. View a list of object templates on your network or add a new object template. [. . . ]
