EN-USERMAN OW-SERVER-ENET-2 V2.0 12.20.12
INTERFACE
The OW-SERVER-ENET-2 has three types of interface:
•
Physical—the ports, buttons, and other elements on the unit itself
•
Web—the on-board Web application that provides real-time access of monitoring data
•
Programmatic—the methods by which to interface directly with monitoring data
Physical
The physical interface of the OW-SERVER-ENET-2 includes five parts:
•
1-Wire Connector Panel: provides connectivity to 1-Wire sensors through three (3) RJ12
connectors. Each connector is a separate 1-Wire bus
•
Power: a single micro USB connector.
The power connector also has a USB
port, which may be used to configure
the network settings.
See section
Configuration/USB
•
Ethernet: connects the device to an ex-
isting 10/100-baseT network via a
standard RJ45 connector
•
Power/Activity Indicator: flashes green to indicate the unit is receiving power and operat-
ing correctly, flashes yellow to indicate data activity
USB
The power / USB port may be used to configure the network settings via the internal flash drive.
This method would typically be used to configure the network settings to a fixed IP address with
the DHCP server turned off, as shown below. See the section Configuration/USB below.
Web
Each OW-SERVER-ENET-2 includes an integrated Web-server that provides access to moni-
tored data from any Internet connected device such as a Web browser on your PC, smartphone,
or even an iPad
®
!
The Web interface provides you an easy way to configure the network setting for the OW-
SERVER-ENET-2 and is accessible by navigating to its IP address. When you connect the OW-
SERVER-ENET-2 to your network it will automatically request an IP address from an available
DHCP server if the feature is turned on, otherwise it will use an IP address assigned by you.
See configuration section below.
Simply open a Web browser and enter that IP
address to access the Web monitoring appli-
cation.
The Web interface provides the following
menu items:
•
Home
—the default, opening screen
that provides a snapshot of all connect-
ed devices, graphing of one value for
all connected devices and OW-
SERVER-ENET-2 basic information
