  • Page 7: Introduction

    Congratulations! This manual will teach you everything about XWEB 3000 server, the most powerful and configurable tool for Controlling, Monitoring, and Supervising. This manual is a comprehensive guide to your XWEB 3000. Reading it you will find all the information you need it to operate.
  • Page 8: Packaging

    • When working with the modem connection always check the kind of modem you are going to install by verifying, with Dixell, the complete compatibility with the XWEB 3000 unit. • Dixell is not responsible for bad functioning of unknown or untested devices.
  • Page 9: Minimum System Requirements For The Pc-Client

    If necessary, inside the CDROM you will find the Java Virtual Machine program distributed by Sun Microsystems. Dixell S.p.a.. is not responsible for any kind of damage occurring after the loading of the Java Virtual Machine program into the user’s PC.
  • Page 10: General Information

    Internet Web Sites. Clients need only a standard Browser such as Microsoft Explorer or Netscape. The XWEB 3000 server is mounted inside a 19” rack. On the back side, it is provided with the terminal connections for external devices (modem, printer etc.).
  • Page 11: Installation

    2.1.1 CHECK THE RS485 BEFORE STARTING To be connected to the serial line all the Dixell Modbus instruments must be provided with direct RS485 terminals or the “TTL”-RS485 interface (XJRS485 or XJ485). Check the controller’s manual for more information.
  • Page 12: The Ttl Output

    XWEB 3000 – rel.1.7– Right connection Wrong connection • Always keep the serial cable away from power cables. • Always keep the serial cable away from electro-magnetic or frequency sources. • Do not connect shield to ground. • Do not connect the “Gnd” terminal.
  • Page 13: Termination Resistor And Polarization Resistor

    To keep balanced the RS485 the beginning and the end of line must be closed with a resistor of 120Ω. If XWEB 3000 is placed at the beginning or at the end of the line, please active its termination resistor by adding a jumper in position 3 (JMP3 on the back side of the unit). DO NOT add the jumper if XWEB 3000 is placed in the middle of the RS485 line.
  • Page 14: Local Connectivity

    LOCAL CONNECTION WITH MONITOR, MOUSE AND KEYBOARD On the back side, the XWEB 3000 is provided with the sockets for a monitor, a mouse and a keyboard. Please connect all the peripherals before powering-on the unit otherwise the system may fails to recognise them.
  • Page 15: Remote Connection From A Client Pc

    In the first part it is necessary to create the Remote Access, in your remote PC, set with the telephone number of the line where the XWEB 3000 is connected to. You have to use Dixell as Username and Password.
  • Page 16: Internet Connection

    2.1.8.3 INTERNET CONNECTION It is necessary a STATIC IP address for the XWEB 3000 which is normally assigned by the Provider of your internet services (ISP net). The Internet connection allows XWEB 3000 to be reached from all PC-clients. Insert the net address assigned by the administrator into the Browser address bar.
  • Page 17: Configuration And Access

    XWEB 3000 – rel.1.7– The above ports are all related to the XWEB 3000 IP address 192.168.0.200.
