CSI Web Server
All – Allowed to view data, make changes to writeable values in a
datalogger’s Public or Status table or a virtual data source, set a
datalogger’s clock, use the API FileControl command, and publish
websites.
After defining the desired user names and access levels, press Apply to apply
the changes. You can also press Cancel to discard the changes. Press Read
file to read a .csipasswd file into the Website .csipasswd File Editor. Press
Save File to save the contents of the Website .csipasswd File Editor to a
.csipasswd file.
3.1.2 Using the Web Publisher
To create or edit a .csipasswd file from the Web Publisher, select a website
from the Websites list. You will be creating or editing the .csipasswd file for
the subdirectory shown in Remote Folder. If the Remote Folder field is blank,
the website is being published to the root directory and you will be editing or
creating the root .csipasswd file. Select the Send new password file check box
and then press the Edit Password File button to bring up the Website
.csipasswd File Editor. Define the user names and access levels you want to
be available for this website and press the OK button. Press the Publish
Website button to publish the website and send the new password file.
If you are creating a root .csipasswd file from the Web Publisher,
you will need to enter the default admin user ID and password
described above in the User ID and Password field to publish the
website and send the new password file. When the website is
published again in the future, you will use an “all” access level
user ID and password from the root .csipasswd file to publish to
the root directory. NOTE
If you are creating a .csipasswd file for a remote folder from the
Web Publisher, you will need to enter an “all” access level user
ID and password from the root .csipasswd file (or the default
admin user ID and password described above if there is no root
.csipasswd file) to publish the website and send the new
password file. When the website is published again in the future,
you will use an “all” access level user ID and password from the
remote folder’s .csipasswd file to publish to the remote folder.
3.2 Datalogger Websites
Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) must be used to create the initial
.csipasswd file for a datalogger. The .csipasswd file is created by connecting to
the datalogger in DevConfig and then pressing the Edit .csipasswd File button
on the Net Services tab. Define the user names and access levels you want to
be available and press the Apply button. Pressing the Apply button sends the
file to the datalogger.
Once a .csipasswd file resides on the datalogger, it can be overwritten from the
Web Publisher. Select the datalogger website from the Websites list. Select
the Send new password file check box and then press the Edit Password File
button to bring up the Website .csipasswd File Editor. Define the user names
