Using the Stand-alone Launcher
The SPMA Launcher Database 4-23
Each time you start the Launcher, an attempt is made to determine
the correct device type for all IP addresses in the database. If a device
is improperly identiÞed, the Launcher will change the entry to the
correct device type (and display a footer message at the bottom of the
window). This can occur due to re-assignment of IP addresses among
devices.
The lower portion of the window will display information applicable
to the device which is highlighted in the list box. Note that only the
Polling Rate, and Chassis Community (or Read Community and
Write Community) Þelds can be edited.
Changing the Polling Rate
Once you have added your devices to the Launcher database, you can
change the polling rate for a single device or for all devices, as
follows:
1. To change the polling rate for a single device, highlight that device
in the list box.
2. Click to place your cursor in the Polling Rate field; backspace to
delete the existing value, then enter the new polling rate in
seconds.
3. By default, the Set Poll Rate For: field will display the Selected
Device option; to change the poll rate for all devices in the
database, click on the selection button, and drag to select All
Devices.
4. Click Apply to save your changes.
NOTE
The System Description field in the lower portion of the window is always
a read-only field; however, once the Launcher has made contact with a
device, you can place a cursor in the text box and use it to scroll the text, if
necessary, to display the entire description.
