With most advanced driver setups, Geo SCADA Expert is the SCADA master. However, some drivers support slave functionality, whereby the Geo SCADA Expert system acts as an outstation or similar device and reports any data changes back to its SCADA master (see Master-Slave Communications).
On systems on which Geo SCADA Expert is a slave, the driver’s Slave outstations support a combination of these status attributes:
- Id
- Full Name
- Type
- Position
- Created—(New Slave outstations only)
- Last Modified
- Configuration Change CRC—(Only displayed if this feature is enabled on your system)
- Exclusive Control User—(Only Slave outstations that are under Exclusive Control)
- Alarm State
- Alarm Last Updated
- Comms State Alarm
- Channel State Alarm
- Protocol Alarm—(Displayed when supported by the driver)
- Scanner Command Alarm
- Alarm Count
- Source Name
- Source
- Network—(Network connected Slave outstations only)

- Preferred Channel—(Slave outstations for which a preferred PSTN channel is specified)
- Incoming Calls—(PSTN Slave outstations only)
