Agile TMS-NET Features Provides the same information that is displayed on the head end unit, but additionally allows for basic remote (IP) monitoring and control of the network. Provides the ability to initiate a manual system scan, without having to wait for the automatic scan to take place Provides the capability to generate a summary report on the status of all monitored devices. This report will allow the user to spot trends so that potential problems may be anticipated, and thus avoided.
