Description

This object provides direct access to the configuration files on the remote HID® VertX® / EDGE EVO® network controllers. All configuration of the network controller can be altered or setup here.  Use caution when making any changes - existing files on the controller will be over-written when uploaded.  To create a new file for downloading or uploading, either press the + button on the lower left of the console when this object is selected or right mouse click over this object and select New File.

Alternatively, all configuration files can be downloaded at once by selecting Download All Configuration Files from Controller - this will download all alterable files that configure the remote network controller.  You can then modify and upload individual files. Once the file(s) have been updated and uploaded, the controller needs to be reset.  This can be done by cycling power (obviously) or remotely using the Limelight XE console by selecting All Tasks in the Tasks property of the controller object, then right clicking on the controller object and select Restart Selected Tasks from the pop-up menu.

Warning - The upload process runs with root administrative privileges. Any files uploaded will over-write existing files altering the setup of the controller. Use extreme caution with this feature - it can render a working controller useless requiring factory service. To understand more about configuration files and what they do, please see the HID® VertX® / EDGE EVO® setup instructions or contact HID Customer Service.
Note - The last 12 digits of the GUID are the encoded MAC address of the remote controller
