Some Ethernet modules include an embedded Web server, which allows:
All the processor or module data is presented as standard Web pages in HTML format. Access Web pages with Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher running JRE 1.4.1_04 or higher.
None of the functions supplied by the Web site require any prior configuration or programming within the module.
The summary table below shows the various selections possible.
According to the type of module, the availability of these functions changes:

Embedded Server Functions
The functions available on an embedded server are generally as follows:
-
Statistics: This page shows the Ethernet network statistics.
-
Security: This page is used to modify the user name and the password to access the site.
-
Address Server: If the module is used as an address server, this page enables you to display and modify the server table.
-
Displaying the Rack: This page enables you to display the configuration of the PLC which is controlling the module.
-
Data Editor: This page allows you to display PLC data.
-
Diagnostics Functions: These pages allow network diagnostics.
Connections to a TSX ETY Module
The module web-site shows static and dynamic pages (PLC data). To refresh dynamic pages, an X-Way connection is automatically created between the web browser and the module.
NOTE: The browser connection X-Way address is automatically derived from the module’s address by taking the same network number and a station number between 54 and 63. It is therefore essential to leave at least one X-Way address free in this range of values.
The number of connections is regulated:
-
It is not possible to connect several browsers on a given PC to the same TSX ETY module.
-
Up to 10 PCs connected simultaneously to one module.
-
On a TSX ETY 4103/PORT/5103 and on the Ethernet link of the TSX P57 6634/5634/4634, it is possible to connect a browser and another application (for example, an XIP driver).
