6. Introduction to the Web Browser Interface
The web interface offers a simple way to manage the software functionalities of the Ha-Vis mCon
Ethernet Switches. The websites will be refreshed automatically in short intervals.
One of the following web browser versions should be used for switch configuration:
• Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 or later
• Firefox version 2 or later
6.1 The menus
The structure of the software interface has been kept simple. After logging in to the mCon
homepage, you will see a main navigation menu tree on the left side and an active window in the
middle right side of the browser window. Using the menu tree, you can access all of the settings
and statistics available on the switch. On the top you find the options for refreshing the window
or to logout form the web interface. The menu bar at the bottom shows an overview of general
switch parameters and also the status of the configuration storage.

5. Multifunction Button
Via the
Multifunction
Button
(MFB) the customer is able to set some specific parameters of the
switch, without accessing it via Web or SNMP.
This chapter describes how to use the MFB and the Service Mode.
Figure 5-1
Operating the Multifunction Button
Operation sequence:
The operation of the MFB is available after the switch has finished the boot up.
The selection of each function is displayed via the 100 Mbit/s LEDs.
If the MFB is pressed the first time (first press 3 sec), the yellow LEDs for displaying the
100 Mbit/s mode are disabled for all ports and the red
Fault
LED is lit continuously to show that
the configuration via the button is possible.
After pressing the button for the first time, the 100 Mbit/s LED on port 1 is lit and the function (Reboot)
is selected.
When the button is pressed for a second time, the LED of port 2 is lit and the second mode is
selected.
Select the function by tapping the MFB an according number of times. Now, the switch is waiting three
seconds for further commands. The selection will be confirmed by two flashes of the red Fault LED.
Should no action be executed, the MFB must be pressed until all 100 Mbit/s LEDs are off and the
switch returns to normal operation (red
Fault
LED off again).
