Client

How can I access the HMI with a client?

After you have published a project on the server, you can access the system from any client. Open a browser and enter the URL of the server. This usually consists of the IP address and the port number.

http: http://127.0.0.1:1010
https: https://127.0.0.1:1020

How can I access the HMI from a mobile end device?

You can access the HMI from mobile end devices in the same way as from desktop PCs.

How can I establish an encrypted connection to a mobile end device?

Some mobile browsers block connections with self-signed certificates. In this case, you can install the certificate on the device:

1. Export the self-signed certificate of the server.

2. Transfer the certificate to the mobile device. You can, for example, send it to the device by email.

3. Install the certificate on the mobile end device (click on the certificate and follow the wizard).

You can now access the HMI.

If you do not want to install the certificate on the device and want to provide a general secure access from mobile end devices, you can issue an official certificate of a CA and import it into the server.

Can I start the client automatically?

The client can be started automatically. Some browsers also support starting in full screen mode. Information on this topic can be found in the Autostart Client chapter.
