The Web Configurator
Overview
This chapter, along with the five that follow, describe the ZoneDAS Web Configurator in
detail, including access, login, and an overview of its functions and interface.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management system that allows easy setup and
management for ZoneDAS via an Internet browser. It is compatible with Internet Explorer 9.0
and later versions, Mozilla Firefox 21 and later versions, Safari 6.0 and later versions, and
Google Chrome 26.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768
pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator, you need to allow:
•
Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by
default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
•
JavaScript (enabled by default).
•
Java permissions (enabled by default).
Accessing the Web Configurator
1.
Make sure your ZoneDAS hardware is properly connected (refer to the Hardware
Installation Guides).
2.
Prepare your computer for a wired network device connection. Make sure your
computer’s IP address is in the same subnet as the BU’s IP address. Your computer must
be in the same subnet to access this website address. It must also be given a fixed IP
address in the range between 192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.254.
To prepare for such a connection on a Windows 10 computer, go to Start > Settings > Network & Internet > Ethernet >
Change Adapter Options. A new window will open. From there, double click on your Ethernet device, click on Properties,
click on the line with (TCP/IPv4), and click Properties. Another new window will open. From there, select “Use the following
IP address:” and input 192.168.1.100 under IP address. Windows will fill in 255.255.255.0 under Subnet mask. Click okay and
you will be ready. Feel free to close all the configuration windows,
