NFN Web Server User’s Manual PN 51990:A2 12/02/0330

4.3 SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION

The System Administration setup options configure various NFN Web Server settings and can only be accessed by

administrator level operators.

4.3.1 AUTO DETECT POINTS ON ALL PANELS

This option will auto detect AFP1010/AM2020 points on NOTI•FIRE•NET™.

How Points Become Visible To The Web Server

There are three ways a point becomes visible to the Web Server:

1. With Onyx series panels, points are detected automatically when the Web Server is connected to the network

on which those panels reside. Therefore, point detection for ONYX series panels requires no user action.

2. With AFP1010/AM2020 panels, points are only detected when a user clicks on the AutoDetect menu item

either under the individual AFP1010/AM2020 panel's menu, or under System Administration. Although the

feature is called Auto Detect, this requires the user action of clicking on the Auto Detect command.

3. With AFP-300/400 panels, points are only detected when they generate an event, which can then be seen by

the Web Server; therefore, the only way to add points connected to an AFP-300/400 panel is to manually

generate an event for each point.

Events from points that have not been Auto Detected will be shown in the Multiple Events list. In other words, events

coming from a classic panel will be logged even if the points themselves did not previously appear in the hierarchy list

at the left of the NWS screen.

A Note On AFP-200 Panel Points

AFP-200 points do not get Auto Detected, and they will not be displayed in the hierarchy list on the left. However,

events from an AFP-200 panel and/or point will come into the Multiple Event List and can generate an email.

Figure 4.3.1-1: Auto Detect Points

Selecting this option will navigate to the corresponding

screen at the right, the Auto Point Detect Verification

screen. This screen requests that the administrator

verify the auto discover command, as the process can

be time-consuming, depending on the size of the entire

system.

NOTE: Only administrators

have security access to the auto

detect feature.
