System
The system tab is home to information about the unit, and general configuration items that were not relevant to the other tabs.
System Information
In the system information block, you will find hardware status information such as temperature, CPU usage and disk usage.
You can configure the clock and timezone by clicking the corresponding "change" button next to them.
At the bottom of the block are buttons which enable you to restart the software or hardware, shutdown the hardware, Identify the unit and download log files.
Pressing identify will cause the sygnalTRX unit's three button LEDs to perform a "chase", clearly identifying the unit.
Other Sygnal Units
In the Other Sygnal Units block, a list of auto-discovered devices will appear. This works using bonjour, so will only automatically discover devices which are on the same subnet. There will be a quick link to access the web GUI for each of these, allowing you to quickly administer all Sygnal units on your network without necessarily knowing the IP address for all of them.
Licenses
The licenses block shows which licenses are currently active on this sygnal unit. License files can be uploaded using the upload button, or the key can be copy and pasted in.
If you wish to buy a license for a currently unlicensed feature, you can click the corresponding buy button which will take you to the corresponding page in the Sygnal online shop, allowing quick and easy licensing of additional features such as the teleprompter.
Bars Generator
Here you can configure the bars generator. You can select from different test patterns, toggle the display of different unit information, set audio tone frequency and loudness.
With the advanced bars license active, you can add custom text fields, company logos and play sync flashes.
Config
In the config page you can configure the sygnalTRX device's human readable name, change the login username and password as well as other more advance settings such as changing the port the web GUI uses.
Here you can also test the tally output and set the logging level.
At the bottom of the config block are buttons to download the current configuration state of your unit. It is split into "flows", which is your encoder and output settings. "Bars", which is your custom bars configuration, and "Network" which is your network settings.
When pressing a download button, a popup will ask you to apply any filters to the download, or you can select "all".
In the case of the network settings, you can enable an auto-increment function for the IP addresses, where - when using the config to flash devices via USB - the IP address will automatically increment by one after each successful flash, allowing the quick configuration of multiple devices with unique manual IP addresses.
You can upload any of these configuration files by pressing the "upload button", which will apply them to the unit.
