12.8. RADIO, RS485, USB, AND ETHERNET COMMUNICATION SETTINGS
The available interfaces enable communication with Apar measurement devices and with other devices, e.g. a
computer, and, consequently, enable the readout of the measured values and configuration of the parameters and
the names, as well as access to the archive files (with the exception of the RS485). Moreover, the Ethernet enables
displaying information on the operating status and on measurements of the recorder in any web browser (Opera,
IE, Firefox, etc.) via the local network or the Internet and sending e-mail alarm notifications (chapter 12.6.1). The
WWW server uses the HTTP protocol on the standard port
80
. The Internet connection requires a known public IP
number and router (modem) configuration. To facilitate access to the networks with varying public IP address, one
can start the built-in DDNS server service (described in chapter 12.8.1).
The selection of the TCP and UDP port
number used by the recorder and the forwarding of this port in the router and other network parameters
configurations should be performed by a qualified person (the network administrator)
. Moreover, one must
make sure that the firewall does not block the ports and applications being used (ARSOFT-CFG and ARSOFT-LOG,
and the MODBUS-TCP protocol). Additional information about the RS485 interface and the MODBUS-RTU/TCP
protocols is available in chapters 17
÷
20.
