DGy 201’s Web Control Panel (WCP) interface provides a graphical alternative to the “command-line” setup and control used with serial control. This method uses the DGy 201’s internal Web Server, allowing you to set up and operate the system from a standard browser.

SPlease note the following important recommendations:

To minimize compatibility issues between browsers, it is recommended that you use the Internet Explorer® web browser.

You must have Java version 1.5 or higher installed on your computer for the WCP to function.

To use the DGy 201 on your LAN (Local Area Network), ensure that the DGy 201 has an IP address that is compatible with your LAN.

Changes to the DGy 201 default IP address should be made before putting your DGy 201 on the network.

The DGy 201 contains an internal web server that provides the Web Control Panel (WCP) user interface. Note that the DGy 201 is configured to have a static IP address. The default IP address is 192.168.1.200, but can be changed to suit your network.

You can connect to the DGy 201 WCP in the following ways:

Direct connection — connect the Ethernet Port on a computer equipped with a standard web browser to the DGy 201’s 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet Port. You will need to use an Ethernet crossover cable for this connection method. In Appendix A, refer to the “Crossover Cables” section (page 136 )for details.

Note

Computers that are set up to communicate on the

 

network are typically configured to have a dynamic IP

 

address. In this configuration the computer is

 

provided with a suitable IP address by a DHCP server

 

connected to the network. When you connect directly

 

to the DGy 201 a server will not be available and you

 

will have to set the IP address on your computer

 

manually (static IP address). Refer to the network

 

settings help section of your computer operating

 

system (OS) for assistance with this.

 

 

LAN connection — connect the DGy 201 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet Port to a local area network (LAN). From a computer on the network, access the WCP using a standard web browser. You can use a standard Ethernet cable for this connection method.
