Settings of the web browser for access to the information
Check the following settings, which are a precondition for access to the information made
available via the web:
● To load the diagnostics data, Javascript must be activated in the Internet browser.
● The browser must support frames.
● Cookies must be permitted.
● The browser should be set in such a way that whenever it accesses a page, it
automatically loads the current data from the server.
In the Internet Explorer, you will find these settings with menu "Tools" → "Internet Options" →
"General" tab card → "Temporary Internet Files" group box → "Settings" button.
To use a firewall in your PG/PC, the following port must be enabled for use of the web
diagnostics: "http Port 80/TCP" or, in the case of secure connections, "https Port 443/TCP".
Logging on to the web server (possible with product version *E04*and higher)
You can only use functions for controlling the motor feeder after you have logged on to the
web server with user name and password. Only then are the buttons with a controlling
function active.
The log-on dialog box is only available via a secure https connection.
Certificates:
To enable the web browser to access the web server via an https connection, certificates are
mutually exchanged. On each change of the SIMOCODE pro V EIP IP address, a unique
certificate with a validity of five years is created for this purpose.
You can also install a CA certificate with a validity up to 2037 via the integrated web server
as follows: Click the "Download certificate" link in the header of the home page and open or
install the CA certificate.
Note
Installing the SIMOCODE pro CA certificate
You only have to install the SIMOCODE pro CA certificate once for the web client in
question, which then applies to all SIMOCODE pro V EIP devices.
If you do not install the CA certificate, the web browser will signal a certificate error when the
connection is established to SIMOCODE pro V EIP.
