ID Unique record ID assigned by MPU955 Admin Console as a system controller is added, in order to
identify one controller to the system.
MPU955 Admin Console automatically generates this number in consecutive order. Upon adding
controllers, the system will automatically assign the next available number.
Component ID and sequence ID numbers are used primarily in the permission tabs to identify one
component or sequence from another in row and column style. Since logical and local numbers are
not necessarily unique or consecutive, and the permission grids must be displayed as consecutive,
unique numbers, MPU955 Admin Console generates these ID numbers. 1 to 64.
Area Unique number identifying a Monitor Surveillance Area (MSA) comprised of an array of monitors
and one or more keyboard controllers. 1 to 64.
Inserting a "0" indicates area 0. This will disable the Area field in the OSD on the monitor. The
use of areas is restricted to values of 1 to 64. Only use area "0" when no areas are needed within
the entire system.
Click the Area button on the main window to view all components defined in a specific area.
Priority This number assigns this controller an order of precedence. Applies only when operator priorities
are the same. The controller with the lower number priority takes over the part of the system it is
addressing.
If more than one controller with the same priority is operating at the same time, access is given and
held for the latest call to a function, in other words, on a last-come first-served basis. Alarm
priorities have precedence over operator priorities. 0 to 65,534.
Boot File The name of the file used by the Ethernet keyboard's boot process. Use the default filename unless
instructed otherwise by qualified personnel. Alphanumeric, 12 characters. The file name IS case
sensitive.
Be sure to select WV-CU850 Controller type FIRST so that the default boot name will be filled in
automatically. This is the only system controller type that will require a boot name.
If the boot name field is filled in before WV-CU850 type is selected, the default boot name will not
be inserted.
Timeout Amount of time that must elapse after the user stops entering keystrokes, before the system logs off
the operator from this controller. (hr:min:sec) 00:00:00 to 11:59:59
The controller timeout works in conjunction with the operator timeout. The system will choose the
lowest timeout value of the two.
Entering a "0" into this field will cause the timer to never expire regardless of the operator timeout
value.
Model Drop-down and select the correct type of system controller. This will enable or disable fields that
are specific to each particular controller. CU350 or CU360 (RS485), CU850 (Ethernet), PFW100
[CU350] (RS485), PFW100 [CU850] (Ethernet), PFW850 (Ethernet), RS232 (serial), or ActiveX.
