Web server
Single-page version
Our web server's appearance
The minimal design:
5 rows and 4 columns
With the option NP, the Enertex
®
EibPC may also carry out the visualization and control of your
KNX
TM
installation. The visualization requires the usage of an Internet browser. Mozilla Firefox has
been tested on all PC Plattforms.
For our example, we assume that we intend to realize
●
a timer control,
●
a diagram of the living room's temperature,
●
the values of the weather map
●
and a light switch.
At the end, the web server will look like in Figure 34. Now we show how it works. At first, we will use
the single-page version only. When you enter the IP of your Enertex
®
EibPC in the address field of
your browser, the view of the web server is displayed. It can be look like this:
Figure 34: The web server
The web server arranges its elements which have either a predefined single or double length like a
checkerboard pattern. There is basically the option not to use some fields and to insert dividers.
The arrangement and configuration of the web elements will be made in the section [
WebServer
].
Due to the fixed target of built-in icons, lengths and variables, the configuration can be purely text-
based without graphical effort. Thus, in a very simple manner, a professional web interface can be
created. The icons (see summary at page 291) are created in a common design.
The minimal design consists of four columns and five rows. The header and footer can be disabled.
Thus, by the design of the operational elements a very ergonomic interface is created on touch
panels with a resolution of 800x600. If the lines are not defined in the Section [
WebServer
], the area
remains unfilled. Then, In the simplest case, the web server consists of a blank page.
