HTTP

The Ewon gateway features a web server which primary purpose is to display the configuration panels of the Ewon gateway through a web interface.
However, this web server has many other functionalities.

It can host your own custom web pages
Custom HMTL pages can be used in the Ewon gateway simply by uploading them using a standard FTP client.
Check the Personal Webpages section

Web forms are available to read/write data from/to the Ewon gateway
These web forms can be used to execute different actions:

  • an Export Block Descriptor,
  • write new value in Ewon tags,
  • execute a BASIC script code,
  • ...

Web form dedicated to Java Code calls
A custom web form is available and specific to the Ewon JAVA runtime.

In your JAVA add-on, your code is called when this web form is used and you can compute the output of the web server. Therefore, you don't have to develop a web server in JAVA.
