Web Servers

Wise SCADA software offers the ability to monitor and control the screens you create via any web browser (Chrome, Edge, Safari, etc.). Thanks to this feature, you can access the system from your mobile devices or tablets, regardless of whether you are in the field or at the office.

You can define multiple web servers and determine different users and access privileges for each server. There is no software restriction on the number of screens or users; however, system performance depends on your hardware.

Web Server Configuration (Top Table)

This panel determines which port the web server will listen to, who can access it, and its general behavior.
