You can set the SMP 351 to run a Web browser client application for direct control if a
stand-alone computer is not available on site. If enabled, the internal Web browser provides
access to a subset of the Network (IP) Settings configuration pane.
To set up the SMP 351 for local control using its internal browser client:
1.
Using a computer connected to the same network as the SMP 351, open a browser,
enter the IP address of the unit into the address field, and connect to the embedded
Web pages.
2. Click the Configuration tab at the top of the SMP 351 embedded Web pages and
then click the Advanced Features tab on the second tier of tabs.
3. Select (check) the Enable the browser client? check box in the Browser
Client panel.
NOTE: The following steps do not require a computer and do not require the SMP 351
to be connected to a network.
