Custom Configuration Panel
Each sensor can potentially have a wide variety of conguration settings not shared by
other driver brands. Collector supports various congurations and sensor attributes by pro-
viding a custom conguration panel.
Once the Sensor Cong page is opened, the custom conguration panel will automatically
display specic conguration information options. If you have the proper permissions,
changes to the sensor conguration can be made and saved to the database (see Chapter 8
for information on the various drivers and settings).
Standard Sensor Information Panel
e standard sensor information panel is common across all sensors and contains some
sensor information as well as the following conguration information that can be changed
and saved to the Collector database:
IP Address/Hostname – Allows you to change the IP address or hostname used to
communicate with a sensor. Changes made and saved to the IP Address/Hostname
eld will be put into eect the next time Collector attempts to communicate with the
sensor.
Port – Allows you to change the port number used by Collector to communicate with
the sensor in conjunction with the IP address/hostname. Changes made and saved to
the port number will be put into eect the next time Collector attempts to communi-
cate with the sensor.
Multi-drop ID – Allows you to change the given sensor-specic ID or address used with
this sensor. On some sensors, this eld may not be displayed until the Attach to Multi-
drop Server box is checked. Depending on the driver and communication congura-
tion, having a value in this eld may not be necessary to communicate with the sensor.
