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:

The Project Editor is the visual editor you use to customize the user interface, and will be described in the Customization chapter.
The 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.
The Log Viewer is a real-time viewer of HSYCO’s logs.
The Status Browser, a real-time viewer of data points, variables and dynamic user interface attributes, will be discussed in the Programming chapter.
The System Monitor is used to monitor several key hardware and operating system parameter of the HSYCO server.
The Wiring Editor, an easy to use end-user logic and scenarios builder, will be described n the Customization chapter.
