Accessing the Web Server
Many OEM customers run Precise Robots using a PC to provide an application-specific operator
interface. In order to update software in the controller, and view certain error messages, it is necessary to
access the Web Server Interface embedded in the controller.
The Web Server Interface may be addressed by opening a browser (such as Internet Explorer) in a PC
that is connected to the robot via Ethernet. You must know the IP address of the robot controller. Two
common IP addresses are 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.10. The PC LAN interface address must be
configured correctly (for example 192.168.0.100, with subnet mask 255.255.255.0). The Web Server
Interface will come up with the window below.
It may be necessary to enter a password if your company has protected access to the Web
Interface. Once the password has been entered, click on “Admin” to access all the features to perform
system upgrades. The window below will open up.
