WebDAQ Quick Reference
Communicate

The WebDAQ Series of intelligent stand-alone loggers are designed for remote monitoring.
You communicate with the device over a network connection using the web interface opened
in a web browser. Perform this procedure to connect with your WebDAQ Series device. Before
proceeding, note the MAC address printed on the label on the underside of the device.

1. Connect to a Local Area Network (LAN)
Plug the supplied cable into the Ethernet connector on the rear panel of the WebDAQ Series
device, and connect to a local network with DHCP enabled or directly to a PC. DHCP assigns
an address when the device is detected. If DHCP is not enabled, a link-local or other assigned
address is used for communications.

2. Connect the power supply
Connect the adapter cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the WebDAQ Series
device, and plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet. Press the POWER button on therear panel. The POWER LED turns yellow as the hardware starts up. When the LED is green
the hardware is ready to use.

3. Establish communication with the WebDAQ Series device
Using a PC or device connected to the same network and subnet, open a browser windowand enter http://webdaq-xxxxxx.local in the address bar, where xxxxxx is the last 6 digits of
the MAC address (printed on the label on the underside of the device). The WebDAQ home
page opens.
If the WebDAQ web page does not open or an error is returned, install a device discovery toolsuch as Bonjour Print Services and try again. Bonjour Print Services lets you identify devices
installed on your network, and is available as a free download on Windows and other systems.
*Compatible with the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, UC Browser, Opera, or IE v11 with thelatest Windows Updates installed. Not recommended for use with other IE versions or the Edge browser.
