Setting Up the Web Server for Local LiveView

If you can connect an Ethernet cable between your controller and a live Ethernet port on your local

area network, you can enable the controller’s web server and then use Local LiveView™ on a

computer or other web-enabled device that is connected to the same network.

IMPORTANT NOTE!

You cannot use Local LiveView to remotely operate the controller from outside

the local network. If you want to operate the controller from an external network, you need to use

Internet-based LiveView or BaseManager.

1. Press the System Setup button. The System Setup menu displays.

2. Press the  button to highlight the Network Setup option, and then press the OK button to

select it. The Network Setup menu displays.

3. Press the  button to highlight the Web Server Setup option, and then press the OK button

to select it. The Web Server Setup screen displays.

4. In the Enabled field, press the + button to display a checkmark. Additional fields display on

the screen.

5. Press the  button to move to the Force SSL field. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) allows the

controller to communicate across a network in a secure manner. If you want to force SSL,

press the + button to display a checkmark in the field.

Note: When Force SSL is selected, the user needs to type HTTPS:// before the IP Address.

Refer to the steps in Using Local LiveView to Remotely Operate the Controller on page 76.

6. Press the  button to move to the Require PIN field. If you want to require users to enter a

personal identification number (PIN) to access the web server, press the + button to display a

checkmark in the field.

If you did not select the Require PIN field, skip to step 8.

the  or  button to move to the digit that you want to change, and then press + or
