ATTRAX ONTROL
Cattrax is a multi-system application that communicates with, and controls, many different types of
PESA equipment; it incorporates data files for specific equipment into the software structure that
contain equipment-specific interface screens, configuration parameters and control functions. In order
for Cattrax to "discover" and communicate with a Cougar3 router, or any other piece of PESA
equipment, the proper data file must be present in the version of Cattrax used.
Cattrax automatically searches for PESA equipment through a process called "discovery." When a
piece of equipment is detected on the facility network with Cattrax, the application establishes
communication with the equipment and lists it as an active device in the Devices View window.
During installation of Cattrax, an icon is placed on the PC desktop. You may start the application by
clicking on the desktop icon, or by navigating to the folder containing the Cattrax program files and
clicking on the Cattrax.exe file. When Cattrax is first started, an application interface similar to the one
shown in Figure 5-1 is displayed on the host PC monitor. As the discovery process continues, a listing
of PESA devices discovered on the network is displayed in the Devices View window.
