5.6. ETH interface
The Navsight processing unit port features an Ethernet 100BASE-T interface. This interface is used for the
device installation and configuration through an embedded web page.
This Ethernet interface is a key feature of the Navsight solution as it provides the following services:
●
A Bonjour service used to easily discover any connected Ekinox and get its IP address
●
An embedded web interface used to configure the device and visualize output data
●
An FTP access to download logs recorded in the internal Flash memory
●
Five virtual serial ports Eth0 to Eth4 that support either UDP or TCP/IP protocols
5.6.1. Accessing the Navsight web page
Thanks to the ZeroConf technology, you can easily access the web page using the Navsight serial number.
Indeed, the Navsight broadcast a web service so you can connect to the configuration web page using the
following address:
http://navsight_020000001.local
Where 02000001 is the device serial number. It can be found on a label located on the enclosure's right side.
If your web browser supports DNS Service Discovery such as Safari, you should directly see a link to all
Ekinox devices available on the network.
Browser Compatibility: SBG Systems recommend using latest version of Chrome, Safari, Firefox or
Edge web browsers. Due to Internet Explorer limitations, only versions 10 and above are supported.
5.6.2. Connector specifications (rugged)
The Ethernet connector uses a 4 ways female ODU connector (ref G81F1C-P04LJG00000). The connector
mates with plug ref S31F1C-P04MJG0-5500. Other manufacturers such as Fischer provide compatible plugs
