Keith,
The panel details in the web portal is essentially the system settings page in a “read-only” mode at the moment. However, you can change the panel name by clicking the edit button on the text box containing the panel name. This is a proof of concept to outline how system configuration will be completed through the web portal. When you’re programming the system, you interface directly with the panel, from the App and from the Web (when ready).
We had to create a different method for the webportal due to how they operate very differently from the app when it comes to intefacting with the panel. The app can keep a consistent session open, allowing you to make and receive real-time updates. The web portal, however, has to rely on an upload-download method. We had to build a whole different configuration method for the web. We are in the process of creating full programming of the system from the web portal. We will gradually deploy different sections of programming as we build out the installer interface. You should see this starting to be implemented soon.
Currently, the panel details page on ElkConnect.com is just used for gathering system information and for accessing the rules configuration.
Thanks,
Mike
