10 Web server
With the web server, the u-remote station is displayed on
a connected PC. This allows you to carry out the following
tasks prior to the complete commissioning of a system:
– Simulate the operation of the u-remote station
– Query the status of each coupler and module
– Display the parameters of couplers and modules, and
change them for testing purposes
– Access diagnostic information
– Operate the station in Force mode for testing purposes
With default settings each coupler type offers web server ac-
cess only via USB port. For that multiple IP addresses can be
parametrized. Please note that this is a virtual DHCP server.
To avoid network disruption no other network device with
the same subnet ID should be connected to the PC.
Using couplers for ethernet-based eldbus systems – recog-
nizable by the RJ45 socket – web server access can be real-
ized alternatively via ethernet. This function must be enabled
in the web server in the couplers parameter setup.
Any changes of the IP settings on either USB port or ether-
net port will not be effective until restarting the coupler.
WARNING
Explosion risk!
▶ Prior to starting work, make sure that
there is not a potentially explosive atmos-
phere!
WARNING
Manipulation of the control unit!
In Force mode, the system may be manipu-
lated to such an extent that can result in life-
threatening personal injury and damage to
materials.
Only use Force mode if you are very familiar
with the connected system and know at all
times the consequences that your actions
will have!
