ioAdmin Quick-Link Buttons
Quick links are a collection of commonly used features. Starting with the rightmost icon, they include search,
and a series of sorting buttons: by connection, by device type, by the device’s 58 character location descriptor
(defined in the
Server Settings Panel
), or show all devices which have an AOPC client installed on them.
Auto-Scan ioLogik Devices
Auto Scan ioLogik devices
allows users to search and locate an ioLogik on the same physical
network, or specify a remote IP address to connect to a remote ioLogik.
Sorting Views
These buttons give four different ways of re-ordering devices in the
ioAdmin navigation panel. The icons are shown at right, and
explained in the table below.
