Summary Panel

The Summary Panel appears on the right side of the SEL-MCP3 Controller screen. It is for informational purposes, and provides alarm and status overview information for the frame as a whole at a glance. It is visible when the Dashboard, Fault Log and Streaming tabs are active, but not when the Configuration tab is active.

Controller Status
  • Primary: Indicates presence (bright green), absence (dull green), or failure (red) of the controller module.
  • Secondary: Indicates presence (bright green), absence (dull green), or failure (red) of the primary controller module. A secondary controller is recommended, but not required.

Network Status
  • IP: Displays the IP address of the frame (should match the URL bar in your web browser, but may not match if the IP settings have not been applied yet)
  • Subnet Mask: Defines the mask of the network address that the device belongs in.
  • Gateway: Defines the router the device needs to go through to reach IPs that do not belong to the current network.
