V.5 . DXDPRO-10U ETHERNET WEB PAGE CONTROL AND MONITORING (Continued)
D. WEB SERVICE OPERATION
The PT2000 Terrestrial Gateway product is fully controllable over ethernet by means of the web service function
(web browser control). The PT2000 web service is designed for use with Internet Explorer V7 and Mozilla
Firefox V2 so it is strongly recommended to use one of these two browser types for the operation. The PT2000
Terrestrail Gateway unit must be configured in advance for the same address space as the PC used for the control
and the PC must be connected to one of the TCP/IP mangement eithere directly or over a network.
Preparation Of The Web Browser
The status pages provided by the PT2000 web service are updated in the web server whenever the operational
status of the device changes. However, changes to operational status, occurrence of alarm messages, etc, may be
masked if the web browser is configured for use of locally cached web pages. To ensure that the web browser
always displays the latest status from the PT2000 web service and not displays outdated cached information it
must be configured specifically to check for newer versions of a web page on every visit to the page. For Microsoft
Internet Explorer 7 this is done as follows:
a) Select ‗Internet options‘ from the ‗Tools‘ menu.
b) Select ‗Browsing history‘  ‗Settings‘ from the ‗‘General‘ tab page.
c) Make sure ‗Every time I visit the page‘ is ticked.
1. Login To The Web Service
Connection to the web service function is established simply by entering in the Web browsers address field the IP
address assigned to the specific PT2000 Terrestrial Gateway unit. A login window will appear in order to
authenticate the user‘s access to the web service. Login can be made at three different levels:
