1 Introduction 1.1 What is the WebNet? The WebNet is a small electronic device, capable of serving as a gateway between another electronic device and an ethernet network – for instance an intranet or the Internet. The WebNet can connect to other electronic devices via e.g. its RS-232 interface. The user interface of the WebNet consists of a number of web pages contained in the device andpresentedbyitsbuilt-inwebserver. Astandardwebbrowserisusedtoviewandbrowse these pages.

First, in section 2 we unpack and identify the parts of the start kit. Then, in section 3 we install the unit and connect to it with a web browser. Sections 4, 5 and 6 are a tour round the various configuration and monitoring/statistics pages of the WebNet. In section 7 we look at the basics in writing and running scripts for making dynamic web pages. In section 8, w

Connector The status LED’s on the board indicate: Green Server activity level (“heartbeat”) Red Internet activity — input/output via the network. Yellow Network activity — general activity on the attached ethernet. 2.3 The WebRJS Adapter Board The WebRJS adapter board has a component side and a side with the connector for the WebNet DIMM module. The component side is shown on Figure 3, and the numbers indicate the following: 1. RS-232 sock

2.4 Connecting the boards The WebNet DIMM module is inserted into the connector on the WebRJS board, at an angle of approx. 20 degrees. It is pushed gently into the socket, and when the connector on the WebNet module cannot be seen anymore, the module is pushed towards the WebRJS board until it “clicks”. The modules are now connected. Figure 4 show the connector side of the WebRJS board, with the WebNet module being inserted. Figure 5 show the WebRJS board with the WebNet module properly inserte

3 Installation 3.1 Connecting to the Network Besides the WebNet Start Kit, you need a computer with TCP/IP and a web browser installed on it. The computer must be equipped with a network adapter. You can either connect the WebNet Start Kit directly to the network adapter on the computer, or you can connect it to a network hub or switch on the local area network. 3.1.1 Connecting to a hub When connecting to a hub to which the computer is attached, the “straight” network cable supplied with the St

3.2 Applying power The AC adapter is connected to the power socket on the WebRJS board and power is switched on. The LED’s should start flashing after a few seconds, and after an additional few seconds the unit has finished booting. 3.3 Assigning an IP Address AWebNetmoduleis,fromthefactory,configuredtoruninaso-called“Auto-IPmode”.
