WebSwitch™ Users Manual
Section 3: Operation
WebSwitch™ can be operated using a web browser, by sending text commands to an XML
status/control page, and/or by sending Modbus/TCP requests. In addition the WebSwitch Plus™ model
allows you to control the outlets using inputs, or events. (Using an input or event to control the outlets
was described throughout previous sections of the manual, and will not be described here.)
3.1 Browser Operation
Once WebSwitch™ is set up, users can access the Control Page using a web browser by typing the IP
address of WebSwitch™ into the web browser address bar. For example, using the default IP address,
the user would enter
http://192.168.1.2
. I
f the IP address is changed from the default, the user
must use the new IP address. Note that if any port is used other than the default port 80, the port must
also be included in the request. For example, accessing the unit at port 8000 would be as follows:
http://192.168.1.2:8000
.
The following screen appears when the Control Page is Selected:
