Frequently Asked questions
Can I create web pages for more than one SCADA 3000?
Yes. Every time you poll a 3000 unit the software can create a new web page for
that unit. Each unit will have its own web page address based on the unit name.
If you repoll the same unit, the software simply overwrites the old web page with
the new information.
Do I need a separate internet account for each SCADA 3000?
No. Generally you can put as many web pages on one account as you like.
Internet providers allocate a certain amount of storage for web pages. Since the
SCADA 3000 web pages are relatively small (60K) you can put many on one site.
Why can’t I find my webpage?
Chances are you’re just typing the wrong address or you’re not entering the
correct upper and lower case letters in your Username or web page Filename.
Typically your webpage will be located at some subdirectory of the main ISP’s
address which will be based on your Internet Account Username. For example,
if you had an internet account with Voicenet and your Username was JSmith,
your webpage would be located at www.voicenet.com/~JSmith/#_unitname.html.
Note that the unitname and Username are case sensitive. You can see what the
web page filename will be by viewing the local copy settings on the web status
programming screen.
How do I find out what Internet settings to use?
You can typically find this information in one of the following places:
(1) In the original internet account information provided by your ISP;
(2) On your ISP’s website in the Tech Help, FAQ, or Support section; or
(3) Call or e-mail your ISP for the required information.
Why can’t I FTP a web page to my America Online account?
America Online requires proprietary software to upload files to their server.
Can I program my SCADA 3000 through the web page?
No. You can only view information on the web page.
