Using the Web Server
Your power system has a built-in Web server that lets you control it
directly from an internet browser on your computer. With the Web
server, you can access the front panel control functions including the
LAN configuration parameters. Up to two simultaneous connections
are allowed. With additional connections, performance will be
reduced.
NOTE
The built-in Web server only operates over the LAN interface. It requires Internet
Explorer 6+, Netscape 6.2+, or Firefox2+. You also need the Java (Sun) Plug-in.
This is included in the Java Runtime Environment. Refer to Sun Microsystem’s
website. If you are using Internet Explorer 7, the tab functionality does not work
with multiple connections. Open a separate browser window for each connection.
The Web server is enabled when shipped. To launch the Web server:
1 Open the internet browser on your computer.
2 Enter the instrument’s hostname or IP address into the browser’s
Address field to launch the Web server. The following home page
will appear:
3 Click on the Browser Web Control button in the navigation bar
on the left to begin controlling your instrument.
4 For additional help about any of the pages, click on the Help with
this Page button.
If desired, you can control access to the Web server using password
protection. As shipped from the factory, no password is set. To set a
password, click on the View & Modify Configuration button. Refer to
the on-line help for additional information about setting a password.
