4.3.4. Show Details Check Box
When the Show Details check box is checked the node information shown above is
expanded to show the information listed in the 4.1.5 Show Details Check Box section of this
manual. Only the details for the selected Node are displayed.
4.3.5. Network Display
In the example above you can see the network display is selected. This gives a simple
graphical view of the NETNodes in the mesh and the links between them.
Note: The buttons above the display are greyed out as they have no function when the
Network radio button is selected.
Each NETNode is shown as a circle with a white number. (If the number turns red, then the
node is temporarily congested).
If you have the Show Names check box checked, you‟ll also see the node name displayed.
The links between the nodes are shown as coloured lines. As each NETNode supports
bidirectional operation there are normally two lines for each link.
Colour
Means…
Green
16 QAM mode – most robust
Amber
QPSK mode – less robust
Red
Basic link only – lowest amount of data passing
White
Link broken or not configured
In the example above you are seeing static lines but when you are connected to a live
system, you‟ll see these lines changing state and the RF environment changes or NETNodes
move about.
