Hi all,

I joined the forum minutes ago to ask the following question (please excuse me for bad form or if it has already been asked before, I haven’t had the time yet to browse the forum).

I can log in to my WAGO 750-8212, and I managed to get a webserver running - after I enabled it from the WAGO’s settings menu. Just a few lines of code to get some lifesigns, and this works fine.

But then I couldn’t switch the webserver off ?!  
Everytime I entered the WAGO’s IP-address, I was directly sent to the Webvisu.  
I couldn’t reach the root anymore to adjust the settings.

There is a second variable, and that’s Google Chrome, with which I tested the webserver.  
Google Chrome has the nasty habbit of autocompleting URL’s, and I can’t get this function switched off somehow. Everytime I typed in the root IP and hit enter, Chrome would add “https://…/Webvisu/Webvisu” .  
I tried it in Edge, and it acted the same way (couldn’t reach the root IP, directly sent to Webvisu).

So now I don’t know if my problem is caused by Google/Edge not letting me just go to the root IP, or if it’s the WAGO that takes all incoming traffic to the Webvisu (once this is enabled).

Is there a way to get to the settings BESIDES using the root IP ?  
Am I missing some way of getting into the settings ?  
Is it totally a Browser Autocomplete issue ?

(I eventually did a hard reset, so I can log in to the settings with the default root IP again, but I can’t imagine this is the normal way to do it everytime you want to check a setting)

Thanks,

Joris

You can always get back to the WBM page by using the address:  
htts://xxx.yyy.zzz.www/wbm  
(I omitted the “p” above so the auto-formatting of this post wouldn’t get weird.)

And you can always get to the WebVisu (if enabled and running) with:  
htts://xxx.yyy.zzz.www/webvisu/webvisu.htm

The Web-Based Management setting you’re looking for is here:

The above setting (in the screenshot) dictates what happens when you browse to the IP address only without any suffix.

Great succes!  
I get it now.  
URL “http”://(IP-address)/Webvisu" brings you directly to the Visualisation, and URL “http://(IP-address)/WBM” brings you to the Settings part (… the WBM).  
And "Default Webserver: … " determines where you go automatically on giving the IP-address.

Thank you very much for the quick and clear response 👍
