Operator control and monitoring
The MV500 optical readers are equipped with a Web server that provides Web-Based
Management (WBM). You can set up and configure your readers using the WBM. You can
create reader-specific programs and program sequences and perform diagnostics, among
other things.
The connection is via Ethernet. The WBM can be opened using a Web browser such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
This device version has the following advantages:
● You do not have to install the software on your PC.
● You can start the WBM from any PC.
● The WBM is always designed to fit your optical reader. This means that no version
conflicts occur.
Starting WBM
Start the WBM as described in the section "Connecting and setting up the reader using the
PST (Page 90)".
