Virtual Control Panels
Notes

About
Use this command to obtain the current software revision data:
It is especially important to know this information when you are placing calls to technical
support.
Exit
Use this command to close the virtual panel application. It is automatically disconnected. The
router control system requires a few seconds to detect that the panel was disconnected.
Notes
Diagnostic Launch
(Diagnostic launch is available only under Windows.)
Hints
Multiple instances of the same virtual panel
Every instance starts with the last saved .INI file for that virtual panel type. (There is one and only
one .INI file for any application program.)
Resizing the panel that is displayed with no frame
When the panel has no frame, dragging the lower right corner works, but does not provide any
feedback until you release the cursor. Then the frame displays at its new size.
Reducing the panel size will generally crop off many of the panel’s buttons and features.
Resizing non-uniformly might distort panel buttons and features considerably.
The frame can be restored to its default size with the context menu’s ‘Set Default Size’
command.
Restarting a panel
Wait at least 10 seconds between stopping a panel and restarting the panel. The router control
system needs a few seconds to register the fact that the panel went off-line. No harm will come
if you do not wait, but it might take longer (up to 30 seconds) for the panel to reconnect.
