8. Web-based configuration
The device is equipped with a web-based set-up interface which operates independent of the operating sys-
tem. Parameterizing of the device can conveniently be done using a standard web browser. In delivery condi-
tion the device expects the IP address from a DHCP server. The web-based set-up interface is not required for
normal operation on the controller.
Note:
If operated on a controller the settings changed via the website will be overwritten by the controller.
