Module monitoring can be performed using a web browser GUI interface
when the 8900NET Network Interface module is present in the frame
(Gecko 8900TFN-V frame). This section describes the GUI access to the

For remote access, make sure the jumper block on the module is set for both
Local and Remote access (
