Description

This is the main access to an HID® VertX® network controller and its properties.  This object allows an administrator to configure inbound message IDs for events as well as provide details on the status of the controller and it's MAC address (which is encoded into the last 12 digits of the GUID).  VertX® controllers must have the server's IP address set in the CommHosts file in the /mnt/flash/config/ directory.  This requires root access privileges on the controller and is set via SSH. Once the IP address of the Limelight XE™ server is set, the controller must be reset - once completed the VertX® controller will attempt to connect to the Limelight XE HID driver on the listen port.  For more information on configuring HID® VertX® controllers, please contact HID Global customer service
