Reactor PLC Configurator Tool

The reactor PLC tool can be brought up any time from the terminal by running configure on a reactor PLC. It will automatically come up if there is no valid configuration present, as shown in the first screenshot below.

Menu

Below is an example of the main menu. If the configurator is started by the reactor PLC app itself due to a lack of configuration, the red warning text in this example will be present. If a configuration is present, the view option will be enabled (unlike in the example).

If a legacy config.lua file is present, the import option will be shown as seen below.

View Configuration

This option shows the currently active configuration of the device. Facility authentication keys will be censored via asterisks, but can be shown via the unhide button.

Import Legacy config.lua

This option is only available if reactor-plc/config.lua is found. Those settings will be attempted to be imported and then a summary will be shown before the settings are saved.

Afterwards you will see this prompt.

Configure System
