    Ethernet Devices Serve Web Pages

    Nov. 8, 2006
    iSeries controllers, panel meters, transmitters and signal conditioners connect directly to an Ethernet network with a standard RJ-45 connector, and can send and receive data in standard TCP/IP packets.
    These devices can serve Web pages over an Ethernet LAN or over the Internet, making it possible to monitor and control a process through a Web browser within the facility or remotely. Web pages are easily customized and offer password protected access. The iSeries controller can send e-mail alerts or status updates. This is accomplished without a computer. The iSeries device (meter or controller) connects directly to the Ethernet network—not to the serial port of a computer—functioning as a “server” and “master” to “slave” instruments connected through serial communications.
