iView Status Bar
The status bar at the bottom of the iView screen provides the following information:
Connection Status Connected arrows, shown above, indicate that iView is communi-
cating with the controller. Broken arrows indicate that the connection has been broken.
Write Privilege Status/Time Remaining An unlocked lock, shown above, indi-
cates that this connection does not have write privilege. A locked lock indicates that write privi-
lege has been granted, and the time remaining before time-out is displayed.
Controller Type Indicates the type of controller to which iView is connected. For a
description of each type See “An Overview of System Options” on page 4. The controller types
include:
• Simplex - a single car that is not part of a group.
• Local - a car that is part of a group.
• Local (Swing) - a local car that can swing away (detach from the group).
• Swing - a local car that is currently detached from the group and is acting like a simplex.
• Local (Alternate Dispatcher) - a local car that can assume dispatching responsibilities.
• Local / Dispatcher - a local car that is also currently the dispatcher. iCue dispatching soft-
ware is running on the local car’s iBox.
