Browsers require an address, or URL, to tell them which HTML page or resource to load into the browser window. In the address bar of the browser you enter the required URL.

 

URL is an acronym for Uniform Resource Locator and is a reference (an address) to a resource on the Internet or LAN.  An URL has two main components: Protocol identifier and resource name. The protocol identifier you will be most familiar with is 'HTTP', and a resource name you may know could be something like 'www.facebook.com'.

 

To load a CCS App in your browser you need to enter the necessary URL in the address bar.

 

All CCS Apps use the HTTP protocol, so the address always starts with 'http://'^*

 

The first part of the resource name will be the COMPUTER NAME^** of the PC which has the CCS Web Server running on it, and the PORT NUMBER you entered during installation for the Web Server to use. This will be in the format 'PC-NAME:PORT-NUMBER'. So, the first part will be like this,

'http://pc-name:pc-port/'

You do not put 'www.' in front because you are not accessing the World Wide Web, all CCS App files are held locally on your LAN.

 

To open an overview page with links to all the MiVoice Office 400 CCS Applications, enter the following resource addess into the address bar of your browser.

 

'http://pc-name:pc-port/index.html'

 

The following web page will be displayed, if you entered the right address.

 

 

This simple page provides links to each of the MiVoice Office 400 CCS Applications.

 

You can enter the actual address of the particular App you want to load, instead of the overview page, if you wish. Depending on which App you want to load, there are 3 different options, for the Wallboard, Monitor, and Supervisor App. They all take the same format, 'appname/index.html'.

 

So, putting it all together, the URL for the Wallboard App will be 'http://pc-name:port-number/wallboard/index.html', the Supervisor App URL will be 'http://pc-name:port-number/supervisor/index.html', and the Monitor App URL will be 'http://pc-name:port-number/monitor/index.html'. Enter either of these three URLs directly into your browser address bar to load the relevant CCS App.

 

The Administrator App is only accessible as a menu item option within the CCS Supervisor App.
