GigaCore 20t LCD info and symbols

When using a GigaCore 20t , the frontpanel LCD and encoder can be used to get info on the ports or quickly setup the ports of the switch.
By default, the LCD will turn off after 600 seconds.
This can be changed via the "device Settings" menu in the webUI of the switch (Image below).
It is also possible to lock access the display with a PIN code.


The first page on the LCD will show an overview of the 20 ports, the port legends and the group colours of the groups to which these ports are assigned.
The color of the port number indicates if the port is active, where orange indicates a 100Mbps or 10Mbps link and green indicates a 1Gbps or 10Gbps link.
A Little black triangle in the port legend indicates that this is an ISL (trunk) port


The second page on the LCD will show the bandwidth usage on all the ports.


The following 20 pages show the settings for the individual ports.
The ethercon icon on the left will show the link status and speed in the center, the border will show the RlinkX  status ( Blue = enabled, Grey = disabled) and the notch on the bottom will show if POE is available on that port (yellow) and if the port is actually providing POE (orange)



When pressing the encoder while one of the ports is selected on the LCD, it is possible to configure that port.
It's possible to select the group to which the port will be assigned, enable or disable Rlinkx, disable the port and toggle POE.



When pressing the encoder while the 20 port overview is shown on the LCD, it is possible to set device wide configurations on the switch, recall and save profiles etc...
