Manager

Touch “about” in the bottom left corner to show HSYCO’s current version information.

The Manager is the Web-based toolkit of applications that you will use to create customized graphic user interfaces and access all system's configuration files.

The Manager runs on most modern Web browsers, including tablets like Apple’s iPad. It also runs on small screen devices like the iPhone or iPod touch, although a larger screen size is advisable for ease of use. Microsoft’s Internet Explorer versions 8 and older are not supported, and IE9 is not guaranteed to work, although it should in most cases.

To access the Manager, enter the following URL in your Web Browser:

https://192.168.0.50/hsycoserver/manager

You need to authenticate using a PIN with administrator privileges to use the Manager.

The Manager has several applications:

• Settings - to configure the system

• Admin - for basic user and network settings, as already discussed.

• Project Editor - the visual editor you use to customize the user interface, and will be described in the Customization chapter.

• File Manager - provides access to all HSYCO’s files, just like the standard file manager you have in your personal computer, only this one is fully Web-based and works directly on HSYCO Server’s files.

• Log Viewer - a real-time viewer of HSYCO’s logs.

• Status Browser - a real-time viewer of data points, variables and dynamic user interface attributes, will be discussed in the Programming chapter.

• System Monitor - used to monitor several key hardware and operating system parameter of the HSYCO server.

• Wiring Editor - an easy to use end-user logic and scenarios builder, will be described n the Customization chapter.

Finally, the KNX Utility and BACnet Utility applications are also available through the Manager if the respective I/O servers are enabled.

You can switch between applications touching the icon on the top bar.

Using a PC with a physical keyboard, you can press [Ctrl] and [Shift] at the same time for fast switching between applications. An application selection panel appears until you keep the [Ctrl] key pressed; select the application you need by repeatedly pressing [Shift], then releasing [Ctrl].
