Configuring the Electronic-Key adapter via the web interface

The Electronic-Key adapter can be configured with a web browser.
If you wish to operate the Electronic-Key adapter with a self-defined, fixed IP address, it is recommended to
configure the device with a PC. This is the fastest method, particularly if several devices have to be configured.
The configuration PC must meet the following requirements:
 Network card
 Web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer)
 If the configuration PC features a firewall, it may be necessary to enable the EKS Electronic-Key adapter as
a trustworthy application. Refer to the firewall documentation for further information.
Launching the EKS web interface
Information!
With this interface, a Java applet is used to display Electronic-Key data on the Information screen. This
is no longer compatible with the runtime environment from Java 8. Consequently, no Electronic-Key
data are displayed. The connection to the web interface is established anyway; the Configuration
screen continues to function.
The DIP switches S3.1, S3.2, S3.3 and S3.4 must all be set to OFF so that settings can be made via the
web interface (see settings for DIP switch S3 in chapter 4.4.3)
1. Open a browser window and enter the default IP address http://192.168.1.1/ or the IP address you have
assigned for the EKS Electronic-Key adapter. If necessary, first reset the default IP address (see chapter
6.1.1.1). If the EKS Electronic-Key adapter is located in a network with DHCP server, enter the
automatically assigned IP address. You will find this in the network connection properties in Windows®.
 The Information screen for the EKS web interface is now displayed.
