Web functionality

Web functions are included in the EXTER panels. It is possible via Internet, Intranet or a direct modem connection to remotely control your operator terminal via a browser. Also, it is possible to monitor and set data in the controller, transfer alarm messages, recipe and trend files and of course send email. The operator terminal can be either directly connected via Ethernet or via a standard telephone modem.

Web server

The operator terminal can act as web server and store HTML pages that contain real-time data from the operator terminal and the connected controller system. With this technology, remote monitoring and control is easily achievable wherever you are. Values can be changed, signals can be set, alarms can be acknowledged etc. through scripts, via Internet, using a web browser.

E-mail (SMTP authentication client)

The operator terminal can send alarms and reports as e-mails to anywhere in the world. Trend and recipe files can be attached to provide further information. E-mails can also be forwarded from a PC to a cell phone in the form of an SMS message. This opens up new possibilities, for example can the production manager receive a production report every day and the maintenance engineer can view the alarms on his PC.

File transfer

The built-in FTP server enables trend files, recipes and the alarm list in the operator terminal to be transferred to a PC using FTP file transfer. Likewise, recipes can be transferred to the operator terminal from a PC.
