LiveView™
LiveView allows you to remotely operate the controller from a computer or other web-enabled
device. The BaseStation 1000 provides the following methods for using LiveView:
Note: LiveView is not supported over a cellular modem connection.
• LiveView over a local area network (LAN) – If you can connect an Ethernet cable between
your controller and a live Ethernet port on your local area network, you can use Local
LiveView on a computer or other web-enabled device that is connected to the same network.
To connect to Local LiveView, refer to Setting Up the Web Server for Local LiveView on page
75.
• LiveView over the Internet – If your network has Internet access and you can connect an
Ethernet cable between your controller and a live Ethernet port, you can use Internet-based
LiveView to make your controller accessible at anytime from anywhere, with any
Internet-accessible device, just as if you were standing in front of it. The LiveView interface is
available through Baseline’s BaseManager server on the Internet. To connect to
Internet-based LiveView, refer to Setting Up the Default Network Connection on page 73.
Note: Unless you purchase the BaseManager expansion module, you will have only limited
access to BaseManager features through LiveView.
