HTTP (Web Server) Interface

A user-supplied Web browser allows the full monitor and control (M&C) of the MBT-5000 from

its HTTP Interface. This non-secure, embedded Web application is designed for, and works best

with, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer Version 5.5 or higher (the examples shown use Internet

Explorer Version 7.0).

6.5.1 Enable the Web Server Interface

You can verify the IP Address from the MBT-5000 front panel menus: CONFIG:

Remote Control Ethernet Address. See Chapter 5. FRONT PANEL OPERATION

for complete details about using this local M&C interface.

To enable the Web Server Interface in the MBT-5000 using only a 100BaseTx remote interface

(this assumes you are running Microsoft Windows OS), do these steps:

1) Select Start, then Run,

then type “cmd” to

open the command

prompt window:


2) Start a Telnet session

with the unit at the

default IP address of

192.168.1.4:

3) Enter the Telnet

username and

password (the default

for both parameters is

comtech):

Failure to enter the correct User name and Password will return you to a blank login screen.
