Web Browser
The HomeTroller-SE can be configured using a web browser on the HomeTroller-SE unit itself, or
from any other web browser anywhere in the world. The built-in web server is enabled by
default. To configure it, navigate to the
Setup
area and click on the
Web Server
tab. Options in
this screen determine the port the web browser will use to access the HomeTroller-SE and
whether or not guests can view events. The features accessible through the web browser
depend on options set in the
Web Server Setup
screen and access rights of the user as set in
the
Web Users Setup
screen.

The HomeTroller-SE web page can be accessed using one of the following methods:
On the computer running the HomeTroller, launch Internet Explorer and type
http://localhost
or
http://127.0.0.1
in the
Address
bar and press
Enter
or click
Go
.
On a computer on the same network as the HomeTroller-SE (home network), type
http://hostname
where “hostname” is the name of the HomeTroller-SE (
HomeTroller)
alternately, type
http://192.168.0.n
, where “n” is the last number of the IP address of
the HomeTroller-SE on the home network. This IP address is typically assigned by your
home network router.
On a computer other than the one running the HomeTroller, launch Internet Explorer and
type
http://
followed by the IP address of the HomeTroller.
Which buttons appear at the top of the web page depends on which options are enabled in the
Web
Site Setup
screen. This Getting Started Guide assumes that all available buttons have been enabled.
