“CONTROLLER“ Tab

The “CONTROLLER“ tab contrast the details of the physical controller with those of the controller required by the application. At the same time, selected controller settings from Web-Based Management can also be configured for one or more devices directly on the Software user interface.

This tab appears only when the “Controller“ entity is selected.
