6.5 Instance Numbers
In several locations in the manual we instruct the use of instance numbers. The
instance numbers of the 8 channels of I/O within the BAS Remote will equal their
channel numbers. The instance number of the 1
st
connected expansion module will be
9. The last instance number of channel 8 be 32 (assuming three expansion modules
are connected). The instance numbers of virtual objects will be provided in the
configuration screen. The instance number of Modbus mapped I/O will be provided in
the project.
6.6 Flash File System and Custom Web Pages
An onboard 1 MB of Flash is set aside for your use. Using the default IP address as an
example, your Flash area is accessible at http://192.168.92.68/user/. A User ID of
“admin” and Password of “ctrlink” allow you to access the user folder, but you cannot
create subfolders within the user folder.
Upload your custom webpage files to the BAS Remote by placing them in the folder named:
/data/user
The names of your html files must be user.html, user1.html ... user9.html. The other
file names can be whatever you want (up to 255 characters).
By uploading web pages and images to your Flash space, you can view the BAS Remote
status in a graphical format of your own design. Via these custom webpage Java
applets, you can access the current status of a channel, virtual object or mapped
Modbus variable.
NOTE:
The part of each applet file name shown below in red will vary
by release date.
The Binary Applet displays status by a coloured square which will be red for a
value of 0 and green for a value of 1. The size of the displayed square in pixels
is specified in your HTML code
— with a maximum size of 500 x 500. The applet
has two parameters: Instance (the instance number of the object to be read) and
TimerMsDelay (the time between reads of this value on the BAS Remote). The
applet file name is:
binary-applet-
2010.03.08.08.48.29
.jar
The Channel Set Applet writes to a channel or instance using the value specified
in the text box. The applet has one parameter: Instance. The applet file name is:
channel-set-applet-
2010.03.08.08.48.29
.jar
The Channel View Applet reads a channel or instance. The applet has two
parameters: Instance and TimerMsDelay. The applet file name is:
channel-view-applet-
2010.03.08.08.48.29
.jar
After studying an example web page (http://192.168.92.68/user.html) that shows you
how to use the three applets, you can erase it and replace it with your own design.
