2.1 Web Configurator Overview

The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy P-79X setup and
management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 11.0 and later versions, Mozilla Firefox
43.04 and later versions, Google Chrome 32.0 and later versions, or Microsoft Edge 20.0 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.
• JavaScripts (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
See the chapter on troubleshooting if you need to make sure these functions are allowed in Internet
Explorer.
Note: This guide uses the P-793H v3 screens as an example. The screens may vary
slightly for different models.

2.2 Accessing the Web Configurator

Make sure your P-79X hardware is properly connected (refer to the Quick Start Guide).
1
Launch your web browser.
2
Type "192.168.1.1" as the URL.
3
A password screen displays. The P-79X has a dual login system. The default non-readable
4
characters represents the user password (user by default). Clicking Login without entering any
password brings you to the system's status screen. To access the administrative web
configurator and manage the P-79X, type the admin password (1234 by default) in the password
screen and click Login. Click Cancel to revert to the default user password in the password field. If
you have changed the password, enter your password and click Login.
