Web Browser Control
To control the FS2 from a web browser on a network attached computer, enter
the FS2 IP address as a URL in the browser. For example, if the FS2 IP address were
“90.0.6.31”, you would then type into the web browser: http://90.0.6.31. This topic
is explained in greater detail in Chapter 5: Browser Remote Control.
NOTE: The web UI (browser GUI) will keep up with most changes initiated at the front
panel. However, the web UIweb UI may not reconnect (displays “Disconnected”)
when network changes are initiated at the FS2 front panel. To manually
reconnect, type the new IP address into the browser, or click the browser Refresh
button. Sometimes the browser caches the old FS2 address. If you can’t get the
browser to connect, try clearing the Browser history to clear the cache, and then
enter the new address again.
