4.1. The Lobaro Maintenance Tool
Figure 3: Lobaro maintenance tool (Windows, Linux, Mac)
The initial device conguration can be done very comfortably from your PC via the serial
conguration interface. Beside the needed Lobaro USB to UART adapter the Lobaro Main-
tenance Tool
needs to be installed. This tool is freely available for various operating systems
including Windows, Linux, Mac and Linux-ARM (e.g. Raspberry-PI) on and works with all
Lobaro sensors.
Technically this software opens a webserver on port 8585 that runs in a background console
window. The actual user interface can be accessed normally using a standard web browser
at address
(see g. 3). Normally your default browser should be
opened with this URL automatically after tool startup . Even remote conguration and log-
observation over the Internet is possible, e.g. having a Raspberry PI via USB connected to
the Lobaro device and accessing the maintenance tool from a remote machines browser over
the Internet.
Additionally to the device setup the tool can also be used for rmware updates (`Firmware
Tab') , watching real-time device diagnostic output (`Logs Tab') and initiating device restarts.
Please note that the device is automatically restarted each time the conguration has
been changed!
