2 Overview of the device
IMSE UltraBase is a general device for controlling and monitoring buildings,
systems or facilities. It is congured to do a certain task and connects to sensors,
actuators and other devices. This manual requires that the device is congured
and installed in a facility.
The device’s user interface is web-based, which means that the device is available
through a web browser. As a complement you have IMSE Ultra OP, a text-based
operator panel that can be connected to a control unit locally.
When browsing the device’s URL or IP number, you will be see a login window. The
person who congures the device sets up users and passwords and gives the user
a user level. You can also select which language you want to use. The device has
been tested to work with the latest versions of Firefox and Chrome.
Factory default the system has following users:
User name Password User level
view ab12 View
operator cd34 Operator
cong ef56 Congurator
They should be deleted or have changed passwords before connecting the device
to the Internet.
The user level View allows the user to view the user interface, but not to change
anything. An Operator may change settings and is intended for those who will
take care of the facility. A Congurator has full rights, can congure the whole
device, upgrade the software, restore backups, and more.
Warnings when logging in!
The rst time you log in to an Ultra, you will be warned that the connection is not
private, or similar. This is because the HTTPS that is being used in the system is
a secure and encrypted connection. The security is guaranteed by a certicate,
which needs to be issued for a specic IP number. Since the IP address is
adjustable, there is no certicate for the unit. You need to add this exception.
The procedure diers depending on which browser you are currently using.
When you log in you will come to a homepage. The start page can consist of a
overview or a summary created by the person who congured the system. The
purpose is that you quickly can read values of interest or make settings using
these overviews and summaries. If there are no overviews or summaries, the
list of active alarms will appear on the homepage. Under the menu System and
Settings you can choose what you want to see at the homepage.

4
There are three buttons up in the interface:
The bell indicates if there are any active alarms in the system, and the letter
shows if there are any new notes. The hand indicates that there are manually
overridden channels, and is only shown if there are. By clicking on these, you will
be directed to more detailed information.
On the left side there is (usually) a node tree with more overviews and
summaries. Click in it in order to change overview or summary.

2.3 Connect a PC directly to IMSE UltraBase
If your Ultra is not connected to a network you have access to, you can connect a
computer directly to the Ultra. On the front, to the right, there is an Ethernet port
labelled LOCAL PC. It can be used to connect a network cable directly to your
computer. You can then go to the address https:\\192.168.142.1.
The local PC port has a DHCP server. It automatically provides a connected PC
network setting so that you can access the web pages directly without manually
changing settings. This means that you should never connect this port to a
network.

7
The port is slower than the one labelled ETHERNET and should only be used to
congure the regular network connection.
The Ethernet port for regular network connection is on the top left. There are two
LEDs for the port. LINK shines yellow when Ultran is connected to a network and
LAN ashes green when there is communication on the network.
On the front of an UltraBase30 there is place for a SD card. See chapters Updates
and Backup on SD-card for more information on how to use this.

3 Overviews
Overviews are pictures created of an installation with important values so you can
quickly and easily see the status of the installation.
This chapter will explain how overviews work and how they can be used.
3.1 How To Use
An overview provides a schematic image of a system since it can be customized to
how your installation looks like.
An overview is created with the overview tool (located under the menu
Conguration, Overviews). The overview consists of values, symbols and
graphs which show current values (updated every 3rd second).
Values have dierent view alternatives. They can be viewed as an animated image
or as an image who change it appearance when a resource reaches a certain
value. For example, an active alarm can change the color of a channel value.
Click on a resource to change settings, see alarm limits and more depending on
resource type.

If you want to change the start page go to the menu System, Settings.

10
4 Summaries
Summaries are menu pages with added resources to see and edit, such as
channels, parameters, alarms and more. Summaries are created by the person
who congured the system.
This chapter will explain how the dierent resources look like in a summary and
how they work.
4.1 Channels
Channels handle all the variable data in the unit and have dierent view
alternatives. They can be viewed as a row with name and value, as a graph or as
a table. Channels are used for logs and alarm.

not become active until you select the box again.

rule’s current status is located to the right.
