The System Frame Control Mode is available via the Ul but not supported for the first release of the Platinum VX It will be supported in later versions and is intended for use when you want your Platinum VX frame to be controlled using a Platinum IP3 Controller The Standalone version should be used when using the first release of the Platinum VX When you set the Frame Control Mode to System the system prompts you to refresh the browser and you see the following screen indicating that the system is in System mode and cannot be accessed via the Platinum VX web interface It will be accessible if you switch to Standalone mode but then the frame will not be controllable by the IP3 You may switch to Standalone using the setting below however your frame will no longer be a part of the IP3 System The frame is in System mode You can run the standalone application only when it is in Standalone mode Only administrators can make changes to those settings Frame Operation and Control Mode System IP Addresses Primary IP 172 25 200 23 Secondary IP 192 168 101 250 Note Only Administrators have the option to switch from System mode to Standalone mode If an Operator logs in the button Set to switch modes is grayed out Database Foundry The Firmware Foundry is accessible via the System Configuration dashboard Platinum VX Svstem Configuration Manage controller settings 3 Database Foundry Firmware Foundry User Foundry a
