12
Simple mode is enabled by default (see Chap. 2.5). It provides an overview of
the dLAN devices connected to the transmission medium in a "Live view" and
shows which of them are connected with one another in dLANs and which do
not belong to a dLAN.
The expert mode is significantly more powerful (see Chap. 2.6). In this mode, you
can open and create databases, configure networks and devices and create, edit
and assign profiles for the configuration of networks and devices.
To switch to the expert mode, the user clicks on the Expert mode button in sim-
ple mode.
2.5 The user interface in simple mode
After its first startup, dLAN AVpro manager always starts in simple mode. This
mode provides the user with a "Live View" window, which gives an overview of
all manageable dLAN devices that are active on the local dLAN transmission me-
dium. The view in this window is organised into the "connected devices" and
"accessible devices" lists.
The "connected devices" list:
Here, all devices are displayed that belong to a network (peer-to-peer or
MDU network), as well as all locally connected devices
. This list shows the
name, the MAC address, the data traffic currently possible for the device
(in Mbps) and its product designation.
If you move the mouse pointer to a device in the list, an information win-
dow will open for five seconds. It will show you the MAC address, the
type, the software version and the firmware version for the device.
The "accessible devices" list:
Here, all devices are listed that are reachable via the dLAN transmission
medium but do not belong to a network.
This list shows the designation and the MAC address for every device.
