Web Configuration 

Once the tDS-700 module has been correctly configured and is functioning on the network normally, 

the configuration details can be retrieved or modified using either the VxComm Utility or a 

standard web browser. 

 

4.1

 

Logging in to the tDS-700 Web Server 

 

The embedded tDS-700 series web server can be accessed from any computer that has an Internet 
connection. 
 

Step 1: Open a new browser window. 

 

 Open  a  web  browser,  for  example,  Google  Chrome,  Firefox  or  Internet 

Explorer, which are reliable and popular Internet browsers that can be used 

to configure tDS-700 series module. 

 

Note that if you intend to use Internet Explorer, ensure that the cache 
function is disabled in order to prevent browser access errors. Detailed instructions for how to do 

this can be found in 

“FAQ

: How to avoid a browser access error that causes a blank page to be 

displayed when using Internet Explorer

 

Step 2: Enter the URL for the tDS-700 web server 

 

Ensure that you have correctly configured the network settings for the tDS-700 series module (refer 
to

 

Chapter 3 Setting up the tDS-700 module

 for detailed instructions), and then enter the URL for 

the tDS-700 web server in the address bar of the browser.
