Configuring network inputs
By using the
Edit
button, you can define any number of inputs.
1. Select the
Activated
checkbox to enable the input.
2. Enter a name in the
Name
field.
Incoming signals can be processed as follows:
The SeeTec server passively waits for a connection request of an unknown
network device while the permitted IP address ranges are checked.
The SeeTec server actively establishes a network connection (with the
HTML
or
TCP
Protocol
) using
Connect to
and
Port
for addressing. The
connection is maintained continuously, and incoming data are interpreted,
i.e. they are compared to the content of the
Text
field. If the text field is
empty, any incoming byte is considered an input trigger. The
Dead time (s)
is the time at which no other incoming signal is accepted after the first
incoming signal. Optionally, a
User
and
Password
may be assigned.
Optional: You can also filter for control characters. In the dropdown list,
select the control character you want to filter. Select
User-defined
to enter
a user-defined control character.

Input configuration
Input 1:
The SeeTec server waits for an incoming
HTTP
connection on
Port
12000. After the signal is received, no other signals will be
processed for the duration of the
Dead time (s)
specified
(5 seconds).
Input 2:
The SeeTec server waits for the
Alarm!
value on Port
13000
transferred via HTTP connection and then closes the connection.
Input 3:
The SeeTec server connects to the network device at
10.0.4.33:8080
via TCP and reports the input trigger as soon as
the byte sequence entered in the
Text
field is received. The
connection is maintained until the network device terminates the
connection.
