7 The CP as Web server
7.1 HTML process control with IT functions
The CP provides you with the function of a Web server for access using a Web
browser.
IT functions
When shipped, the file system of the CP contains S7 beans and further information
in the file system. The CP also provides HTML pages for Web diagnostics.
HTML pages are used to indicate and display information in a Web browser.
These, for example, contain diagnostic information.
S7 applets are Java applets specially written for SIMATIC S7 and that used to
allow write or read access to the S7-CPU.
With the following address, you have access to Web diagnostics:
http:\\<IP address of the CP>\diag
When supplied, diagnostic buffer entries shown on diagnostic pages are always in
English. How to load other languages on the CP is described in the following
sections.
For detailed information on Web diagnostics, refer to the general Part A of this
manual.
Please note the following special features when operating IT functions:
Note
The data exchange for productive communication (S7 connections +
SEND/RECEIVE connections) always has a higher priority than data exchange
with the Web browser. This can lead to delays in the HTML process control in the
Web browser.
Enabling the Web server function
If you want to use the CP for IP communication with HTTP, you will need to
activate port 80 of the CP in the configuration:
Select the option “Activate Web server” under “IP access protection” in the
properties dialog of the CP.
