SECTION 6 – WEB SERVER ACCESS
This section describes the web server access capabilities of the FloBoss S600. The S600 unit can be
accessed over its Ethernet communications port by any PC with Windows
greater and internet access. The S600 unit must have VxWorks firmware version 04.01 or greater, and the
configuration in the unit must have been created by Config 600 software version 1.4 or greater.
NOTE: Alternate web browsers may also work. However, Windows
6 or greater is recommended for full features.
The web server access will allow the user to view reports, displays, and diagnostics. The number of items
available for viewing is dependent on the user's security access level. Some values and statuses are
read/writable and may be modified from the web server access. Whether items may be modified from the
web server access is also subject to the security level access of the user.

6.1 How to Access the FloBoss S600
If no users are currently logged on to the FloBoss S600 through the front panel display, the FloBoss S600
may be accessed by a web connection. There is always only one point of control. If a user is logged in to
the web browser, you will not be able to change data from the front panel. If you are logged in via the
front panel, you will only be able to view data until the front panel user is logged off.
The standard or optional second Ethernet communications port may be used for the connection.
On a PC currently connected to the internet, open the Windows Internet Explorer browser (version
1.
6 and greater).
2. In the Address bar of the browser, type in the IP Address of the FloBoss S600 unit.
To learn the IP address of the Ethernet port on the S600 unit, use the front panel display. From the
startup menu, select Network Setup > Network I/F 1 > TCP/IP Address 1 or 2.
A dialog box will appear that asks for your user name and password (security code).
3.
Use the same password that you would use for access to the PCSetup Editor. The passwords are
established in the configuration. If you are unsure of your user name or password, check with the
person who created the configuration for your application.
The security level assigned to your security code will determine how many options are available on
the web access interface.
Click OK.
4.
The browser will now display information from the FloBoss S600 unit.
