4.10 HTTPGET Program
You can setup and read the information from the iServer by using the HTTPGET program. The following program can be used to read data from the embedded server firmware by using TCP port 1000. The command string sends to this TCP port, then it reads back the response from the same port. Whatever you write to the port goes to the serial port unmodified. Any response from the serial port can be read back from the same socket.
The Httpget.exe file is used to setup and read information from the iServer. This file will be automatically installed when you run any iServer related software available on our website and CD.
Example to use the "Httpget" program:
1.Create a directory C:\iServer\Httpget.
2.Copy httpget.exe and readme_features.doc files to this directory.
3.Make sure that you are in this directory and then enter the following test program:
C:\iServer\Httpget\httpget –r –S "*01X01\r" 192.168.1.200:1000
where:
"01" is device address (in hex format) for RS485 communication interface (skip for RS232)
"X01" read measurement data value (iLD protocol) "\r" calls out a CR
"192.168.1.200" is an IP address "1000" is a local port number
Respond:
01X01074.3
where:
"01X01" is Echo command
"074.3" is a display reading of the
