4.0 Web Interface
Overview
The IDH4 Series power supply transponder provides an embedded Web server interface to allow operations
personnel the ability to connect locally or remotely via TCP/IP over Ethernet with a laptop/computer to verify the
status of common data points and to configure various operating parameters.
4.1 Local Web Server Access
The IDH4 Series transponder’s Ethernet port (comparable to the Craft port on some transponder models)
will typically be used as a local connection point allowing the user to connect directly to the IDH4 Series
Web server interface to verify/configure common communication parameters and view power supply
status and battery values. The Ethernet port on the IDH4 Series is a fully functional standard Ethernet
port, capable of providing all the functionality of any standard Ethernet connection.
To access the IDH4 Series transponder Web server locally utilizing a Web browser, follow the procedure
outlined below:
1. Connect a standard Ethernet cable (CAT5) between the IDH4 Series transponder Ethernet port (ETH)
and a laptop or computer’s network interface port.
2. Launch a Web browser.
3. Enter the transponder's default IP address (192.168.100.1) into the Web browser’s address field.
4. The transponder’s Web server home page will appear (Fig. 4-1). Note: For the IDH4 Series,
this may take up to 45 seconds when the transponder is initially powered up with no RF
connection.
5. Click on the Language menu to select a desired language for the text information on the Web page.
The language choices are English (default), Spanish, Portuguese, French and German.
