Appendix A: Browser-based Configuration Tool
All AC-powered sensors have a built-in web server that allows you to log into and configure the
device through a browser when attached directly to the computer via a network cable. With this
utility you can specify the address of the destination host and wired or wireless network parameters.
The utility also provides some tools for diagnosing problems. Opening the utility and using it to
configure AC-powered sensors are covered in Configure Sensors for the Network on page 25.
