12.5 Using the Ethernet Connection
Once the module and LAN connections have been configured the Ethernet connection allows access
to the Web Server pages inside the system. These pages are used to show information about the
master station and allow some settings to be remotely altered. They also show the status of all the
connected actuators and the parameters set inside the field units, and they even permit the valves to
be moved provided the user has sufficient access rights.
12.5.1 Master Station Overview
The overview screen is the first screen displayed after a successful log in. The display will show either
a Pakscan IIE or Pakscan IIS master station depending on the type of station accessed.
All users will have access to view the status, but only specified users can issue commands. When a
command is selected such as Alarm Accept or Reset Loop a pop-up confirmation box appears and
acceptance is required before the action takes place.
The menu bar across the top of the screen is used to navigate to the other displays from this screen
although the Admin Area is only available for users with administration rights.
Note: Up to 10 concurrent users are supported at any one time
