Chapter 4. Operator Panel and Web User Interface

"Operator Panel" on page 4-1
"Web User Interface" on page 4-4
The library has a local interface, the Operator Panel, and a remote Web User Interface
(UI).
The Operator Panel is located on the front door of the library and allows users to
work locally on the library. The Web User Interface allows users and administrators to
view and perform some library functions from remote sites.
The Web User Interface is implemented as a Java Applet that runs in a web browser
from any PC on the network. The Java Applet requires that Java 1.5.0 or higher be
installed on your host computer for full functionality, and is best viewed using
Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher. Internet Explorer 7.0 or higher is required for IPv6.

Operator Panel

The Operator Panel is located on the front bezel of the library. The Operator Panel
displays library status information and menu commands used to execute library
management functions in response to the Control Keys located on the right of the
Operator Panel.
