Instruction manual

If you have not yet set up an ISP account and wish to program the Webmaster from a remote

location, or if you just prefer the “old fashioned method” of direct modem-to-modem

communication, go to the section below called “Direct Modem Access: Direct Tap.”

If you have an Ethernet card option installed, then the controller becomes another PC on the

network. You can use your web browser software, enter the controller’s address (assigned by your

network administrator) and access data or reconfigure the controller. You will need to have a

network node nearby to connect your Webmaster controller. See the section below called

“Ethernet Connection to LAN”.

You may also use the Ethernet card in your laptop to communicate with the Ethernet card in the

Webmaster. This requires a special null cable and the Ethernet parameters must be programmed

into the Webmaster using either direct serial to the RS232 port, or the local keypad. Refer to the

section below called “Direct Ethernet (for a Webmaster not connected to the LAN).”

Uploading Configuration Files

You can save all of the set points from a previously programmed controller, and then upload the

same set points into another controller. If you have already downloaded a configuration file from a

previously programmed controller, you can upload that file to this controller in order to make all

the set points the same. If you want to save the set points of this controller for use in future

controllers, or want to program this controller using a stored configuration file, refer to section

6.29 for specific instructions.

See the appropriate section above, depending upon how you plan on uploading the configuration

file; via a laptop connected to the front panel, via modem, via Ethernet connection, or via local PC

connected to the RS232 port.
