CSI Web Server

The CSI Web Server supports the following target browsers at the indicated
version or later:

Chrome 10
Firefox 4
Internet Explorer 9
Opera 11
Safari 5

If firewalls exist between your web server (i.e., a PC running CSI
Web Server or a web-enabled datalogger) and the target audience
of your website(s), the firewalls will need to be configured to
allow incoming traffic on the port being used by the web server.
(The port used by the CSI Web Server is configured through the
CSI Web Server Administrator. The port used by a web-enabled
datalogger is configured through DevConfig. The default port is
80 for both the CSI Web Server and a web-enabled datalogger.)
See your network administrator for help in configuring the
firewalls.

NOTE

1. CSI Web Server Administrator

The CSI Web Server Administrator allows you to configure the web server,
check the status of the web server, set up user accounts and passwords, and
easily browse to sites running on the web server. It can be opened from the
Windows Start Menu by selecting Programs | Campbell Scientific | CSI Web
Server | CsiWebAdmin.)

1.1 Status

The Status tab shows the status of the web server and allows you to browse to
sites running on the web server.

If the web server is not running, click on the image to start the web server.

When the web server is running, the version of the web server running will be
displayed. The protocol, port, and status (e.g., Protocol HTTP, port 80, status
Listening) will also be displayed.

A list of sites provided by the web server will be shown. You can click on any
site to browse to that site.

The keys icon (

) next to each site can be used to create or edit the

.csipasswd file for that site. See Section 3, Web Security, for more information
about .csipasswd files and how they control users and their website access
rights.

The plus icon (

) next to “Root” creates a new remote folder. You can then

use the keys icon next to the new remote folder to create the .csipasswd file for
that remote folder before publishing a website to the folder. See Section 2,
Web Publisher, for information on publishing a website to the remote folder.
