Web server
A web browser is used for access and operation.
The following web browsers are suitable:
●
Internet Explorer V10 (on Microsoft Windows 7)
●
Internet Explorer V11 (on Microsoft Windows 7)
●
Edge
●
Mozilla Firefox from V45 (on MS Windows 7)
●
Google Chrome from V50 (on Microsoft Windows 7)
Note
TSL v1.2 is the precondition for HTTPS access.
Note
In order to guarantee the optimum performance regarding the data transfer rate, the number
of simultaneously used communication interfaces (PROFINET, OPC UA, Web) should be
kept as low as possible.
Preconditions
●
The computer with installed web browser is connected with the SITOP PSU8600 via
Ethernet.
●
The SITOP PSU8600 has an IP address that you know.
●
In the MANUAL mode: DIP switch "WEN" (web server enable) is set to "ON". Refer to
Section "Activate the web server for the MANUAL operating mode on the module
(Page 98)".
●
In the REMOTE operating mode: Web server access is activated.
The following sections explain how to activate access to the web server:
–
For SIMATIC STEP 7 in the TIA Portal under "Parameter assignment (Page 181)".
–
For SIMATIC STEP 7 under "Parameter assignment (Page 211)".
–
For the REMOTE mode, access to the web server can also be activated via the web
server in the MANUAL mode, see Chapter "Activating the web server (Page 271)".
Note
Preset IP address for accessing the web server
It is not permissible that the IP address 192.168.20.173 of the web server is already
assigned in your system configuration.
In order to speed up access to the web server - and therefore increase the speed at which
web pages are built-up - it is possible to switch over access to the web server from HTTPS
(default setting) to HTTP. See Chapter "Web server (Page 288)".
