Remote Operation Panel Detection

Standard Device Preferences now include an option to retrieve the status of the Remote Operation Panel on a managed device. You can add the option to a template which, once distributed to a device via a Configuration task, allows you to view the panel status.

You can enable this option within either an Apply or Check task. The result is always displayed in the Check column because it is only possible to retrieve the Remote Operation Panel status, not change it.

  1. Login to the SLNX Management Console.

  1. Click [Configuration] ⟶ [Standard Device Preferences]. 

  2. Click [Add] to create a new template and choose any of the template creation options (Create Blank, Get Settings from Device, or Import Settings from File). Give the template a name, and then click [OK].

  3. On the Standard Device Preferences tab, click the Device Functions Category.

  4. Scroll to the bottom of the Device Functions options and look for the Remote Operation Panel set.

  5. Enable the checkbox, and then choose Enable to turn the option on.

  6. Save the template.

  7. Create a task that applies the template to one or more target MFPs. Refer to Register a Template to a Task for instructions if needed.

  8. To view the Remote Operation Panel status for a device that was included in the task, check the Task Log. On the Navigation tree, select System ⟶ Logs ⟶Task Log.

  9. Select a Task log entry that matches the configuration task you ran above.

  10. Double-click a device that was updated with the task you ran above. In the Log Details section of the screen, you will see the ROP status of the device displayed in the Check Value column.
