4.1 PC Recommendations
We recommend the following PC hardware and software for connecting to
a TB9400 base station:
■ SVGA Monitor (1024 x 768 minimum).
■ Network connection.
■ Mozilla Firefox version 3.6 and later, Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 8 and later.
Note We h ave t e s t e d t h e base station with Firefox 3.6 and Internet
Explorer 8. If you encounter problems with your web browser,
change to one of these browsers.
4.2 Connecting Your PC to the Base Station
You connect to a base station using your web browser. Using multiple
browser windows or tabs, you can view more than one base station and more
than one page of any base station at once. Base stations have a web-based
interface that provides the pages you view. Up to five users may be logged
in to a base station at once.
The base station has three different user access levels: Administrator,
Maintainer, and Guest. Passwords can be defined for the Administrator and
Maintainer levels. This is done using the base station’s web interface (Tools >
Tools > User Administration). Refer to the Help for more information on
setting user access levels.
