Pre-requisites

Opening the EMS Remote Management Tools

The EMS Remote Management Tools are intended primarily for System supervisors and expert users.

They provide an HTTP link to data in the EMS database, allowing hardware devices, at remote locations, to be configured and associated with an existing EMS System.

Once a device has been added to EMS via the Web Interface the Remote Management Tools can be used to perform configuration tasks on that device such as Synchronising, Calibrating and Merging.

In general, these tools should be used where there is a hardware firewall/internet connection between the EMS Remote Management Tools and the EMS Server.

The use of this tool requires an HTTP: (Port 80) connection to the EMS Server.

These tools currently provide the capability to perform the following tasks:

Synchronising USB Devices

Calibrating USB Devices

Merging Sensors/USB Devices
