Troubleshooting Information
Checking the Network
Checking Web Browser Settings
The E5810 Web access (web server) generates web pages that depend on
Javascript and Frames. You can use any web browser that supports these
features to view and interact with the E5810 web server. For best results,
you may need to Enable Javascript, and configure Cache and Page
Refresh, and/or Proxies options on your Web browser. Internet Explorer 6.0
or greater is recommended.
Enabling Javascript The E5810 web server uses Javascript. The E5810 can detect if Javascript
is not enabled and will display instructions on the E5810
Welcome page to
enable Javascript for selected version of Internet Explorer. If Javascript is
not enabled, you will not be able to modify configurations in the
View &
Modify Configuration page, nor will you be able to Interact with instruments
using the Find & Query Instruments page. Steps to enable Javascript for
Internet Explorer is shown below.
Steps to Enable Javascript (Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5)
1 From Internet Explorer menu select Tools->Internet Options
2 Click the Securities tab

prompted for “Are you sure you want to change the
security settings for this zone?”
9 Click the OK button on the bottom of the Internet Options dialog
box to make changes active.
Cache and Page
Refresh
For faster performance, most web browsers cache web pages. If a page is
cached, an image of the web page is stored locally. When you navigate to a
page that has already been viewed, the browser will load the page from it
cache rather than loading it from the network.
Usually, this process works well for static web pages. However, this process
may cause problems for 'dynamically' changing web pages. This problem
may occur when you are navigating using the browser’s forward / back /
refresh options.
