Web Operator Suite
• The amount of unused screen real estate and secondary graphics and
logos has been reduced to increase the amount of useful data that can
be presented on a screen. This reduces the amount of scrolling and the
need for the user to “hunt” for data.
• The Web Operator Suite home page has been removed and users will
now be initially presented with the Alarm Manager after logging into the
product.
• Alarm Manager no longer refreshes automatically by default. Users can
choose when to refresh or they can activate the automatic refresh.
• Alarm severity is now indicated in the alarm table by the background
color of the alarm’s table row. Critical alarms are red, major alarms are
orange, and minor alarms are yellow.
• When using the filter in Web Alarm Manager on a larger number of
alarms (>3000), filtered alarms will now be displayed at the top of the
list just as they are in Spectrum Alarm Manager.
• The Alarm Manager’s alarm table now includes a single details column
that presents the user with all of the needed “click areas”. From here
users can choose to click to the alarm details, model information, alarm
type information, as well as the secondary alarms.
• Alarm Impact Severity has been added to the main alarm table, and
the Impact Scope View, formerly only available in the desktop Alarm
Manager, is now available by clicking on the Impact Severity column.
• Alarm type data, including alarm name, probable cause, symptoms and
recommendations, is now presented on the alarm details page. Users
will no longer need to drill into another Web Operator Suite screen.
• User administration has been removed from the Web Operator and is
now part of the standard Spectrum User Editor - Spectrum user
administration no longer takes place from multiple areas of the system.
• Checking and messaging during install has been modified to ensure the
user is notified if they try to install Web Operator to a directory with a
space in the name. They will be prompted to select a different directory
if they try to do this.
• Page context-sensitive launch capabilities have been added to allow
users to launch into a web-based, searchable version of the SPECTRUM
Web Operator User Guide (5078).
