--- The maintenance page. The configuration parameters described below are set at this page.This page describes the device driver and the device window for the Lynx DVD5820 Chassis Monitoring Device. It shows the state of the power supplies of a DVD5820 chassis.
The Lynx DVD5480 is controlled by means of a text based protocol running over a TCP/IP socket connection. Hence, Lynx DVD5480 are to be configured in the same way than devices controlled through a TCP/IP to serial adapter / terminal server. The default port used by the device is 2306. The Port specification for a device with the IP address 10.0.0.1 would be "10.0.0.1:2306".
If multiple devices are set up to control the modules in one rack frame, the devices all must be assigned to the same port / device thread.
Device window pages
The following table shows which device window pages are available with this individual device type. Tool-bar functions not mentioned here are described at the general description of device windows .

At the maintenance page of the device window there are a couple of configuration parameters which must be set to make the software talk to the DVD5420 ASI-Distributor.
| parameter | description |
|---|---|
| slot | This value addresses the module slot within the 10 inch rack frame. You may specify the complete address as described in the Lynx protocol documentation. For a single rack frame it is sufficient to set the slot number (slot numbering starts with 1 beside the power supply). |
| user | The user name to log on to the device. The factory default of the DVD5420 ASI-Distributor is "user". |
| password | The password to log on to the device. The factory default of the DVD5420 ASI-Distributor is "lynx$ctrl". |
| readBackDelay | This parameter defines the time (milliseconds), the driver waits at least before it reads back a parameter which just has been changed. |
