Advanced

The eWeb Advanced application is an expansion on the eWeb Basic

application. Use the advanced application to perform system management

tasks using the web interface, and to use script messages for emergency

situations.

Use these system management tools when you need a quick overview of

the configuration of the system, or to make changes to groups settings or

composition. A Script message contains actions that must be taken in the

event of an alarm. The web user can follow the status of this alarm using

the web browser.

eCONFIG

The eCONFIG module is the module most commonly used to make

changes in the configuration. eGRID can be used to make changes in

the configuration directly on the database level, but eCONFIG is a shell

over the configuration, providing a more user-friendly way of making

configuration changes. The eCONFIG module can be installed on the local

PC (where the eKERNEL is running), or on a remote PC. If the module

is used on the local PC, almost all parameters in the system can be

changed, and new items can be added. If the module is used on a remote

machine, only the Users, Groups, and Device parameters can be changed,

and new users, groups, and devices can be added.

eGRID

The eGRID module is used for configuration purposes only. You can use

MS-Access instead of the eGRID module; however, the most user-friendly

way of making changes in the configuration database is using the

eCONFIG module.

eTM

The eTM module is the Task Manager in DECT Messenger. eTM is not a

scheduler, but serves as a monitor to ensure that the modules in DECT

Messenger are running. If a module stops, the Task Manager restarts

the module within two seconds. If the Task Manager is running, Windows

cannot be shut down.

eLOG

The eLOG module provides information on how DECT Messenger has

processed an incoming alarm from the input up to the output device. This

can be necessary if, for example, no response is received to indicate

whether a recipient received a message or not. The eLOG module does

not have a user interface, and does not provide charts. However, eLOG

provides three *.csv files that contain detailed information about how the

alarm was processed.
