FIG. 60 WebControl VNC installation and Password entry screens

8.Click Yes from the Security Alert popup window to agree to the installation of the G4 WebControl application on your computer. This application contains the necessary Active X and VNC client applications necessary to properly view and control the panel pages from your computer.

The G4 WebControl application is sent by the panel to the computer that is used for communication. Once the application is installed, this popup will no longer appear. This popup will only appear if you are connecting to the target panel using a different computer.

9.If a WebControl password was setup on the G4 WebControl page, a G4 Authentication Session password dialog box appears on the screen within the secondary browser window.

10.Enter the WebControl session password into the Session password field (FIG. 60).

11.Click OK to send the password to the panel and begin the session.

The secondary window then becomes populated with the same G4 page being displayed on the target G4 panel. A small circle appears on the G4 panel page and corresponds to the location of the mouse cursor. A left-mouse click on the computer-displayed panel page equates to an actual touch on the target G4 panel page.

Using your NetLinx Master to control the G3 panel

Refer to the specific panel instruction manual for detailed information on configuring and enabling WebControl. Before being able to access a G3 panel (with SSL enabled) through the WebControl tab, you must first download the Java Virtual Machine software from Sun Micro Systems® to install a Sun Java applet on your computer.

You must install the Sun Java Web Start application. Using the default Microsoft®

Java applet (when SSL is enabled) can cause some G3 panels not to open or be viewed properly.

Once the Master’s IP Address has been set through NetLinx Studio (version 2.2 or higher):

1.Navigate to the Java Web Start Application from http://java.sun.com/products.

2.Click on the Download Java Web Start > Download Java Web Start 1.4.2 link to begin the download of the application to your hard drive and follow the installation procedures recommended by the application.
