Enhanced functions
Enhanced functions are available using the Green-GO update connection software.
To connect the device to the Green-GO update connection software, make sure the
computer is in the same IP range as the Beacon.
The default IP setting of a Beacon is set to dynamic. When no DHCP server is present,
the Beacon will get an IP address in the 169.254.xxx.xxx range. It is advised to set
your computer to a fixed address in this range – with a subnet of 255.255.0.0 – and
turn other network adaptors (like wifi) off.
When the device is connected, press the Scan button on the software. The Beacon
will now pop up in the left pane. By selecting the beacon, the properties will be
displayed in the right hand pane.
IP
Set up the IP of the Beacon
à
The default setting is dynamic, but a manual address and subnet can be set here.
This will be active immediately, therefore it might be necessary to change the
settings of the computer accordingly.
Dim
Set the intensity of the Beacon
à
The Beacon can be set to 3 intensity levels, corresponding to a change in brightness
of the LED outputs.
Backlight
Enable the Blue backlight
à
By enabling the backlight function, the display will always be lit up blue. This can be
useful for orientation or worklight purposes.
Talk light
Enable the talk activity report
à
The beacon can be set to not only report calls but also the talk activity of the
assigned group or user.

Colours
The colours of the different signals of the Beacon can be adjusted by changing the
global colour scheme of the Green-GO config used. This can be done in the Config
settings menu of the Green-GO control software.
