The Arctic device’s local network is scanned for new devices abouttwice per hour at the most. If a non-continuous Patrol connection isconfigured, the scanning is limited to the chosen connection interval.Only networks with a netmask of 255.255.255.* are scanned to avoidexcessive scanning time.7.3 Asset managementWith the asset management features in the Arctic Patrol application, it is possible toremotely batch update the Arctic wireless devices. Additionally, RIO600 updateactions can also be performed from a remote Arctic wireless device through theARM600’s WHMI. The asset management functionality is developed on top of theArctic Patrol application, which is a centralized management system running inARM600 (server) and Arctic wireless devices (clients).When one or more devices have been selected in the device list via Arctic Patrol/Devices, these devices can be managed using the actions available via Arctic Patrol/Management. The available actions depend on the selected device types. Arcticwireless devices report a list of the supported API commands to the Arctic Patrolapplication. These management commands can be executed remotely from the ArcticPatrol application interface for one or several devices.In addition to the API commands, a list of more advanced management tools may beavailable via Arctic Patrol/Management depending on the type of device that hasbeen selected via Arctic Patrol/Devices. These tools typically use the more simpleAPI commands in the background.Figure 19 illustrates the API commands and tools available when both an Arcticwireless device and a RIO600 device have been selected in the device list.Section 7 1MRS758861 AArctic Patrol36 ARM600User Manual
