1Introduction
novaWeb is an embedded web server that allows
to visualise your installation via a standard web
browser. Special attention has been put on a light
weight interface (pure HTML, without ActiveX,
Java,..) to allow for fast access even with very
simple devices like smartphones.
According to your login level, you can visualise any
states or measurements, modify setpoints and
commands or modify any settings.
Alarms and events (like the change of values) can be sent to e-mail recipients.
Furthermore, novaWeb can send out an e-mail to transfer historic values for billing or
archiving.
Thanks to the remote access, you can easily optimise your installation without wasting
time through having to go on site.
This manual describes the user interactions via web browser (Internet Explorer or
Mozilla Firefox) and via the standard web browser of a Symbian smartphone
(SonyEricsson P910i). Since the web server is based on accepted internet standards
(HTML), any web browser complying to these standards should work accordingly.
Testing, however, has been limited to these programs.
Since it is intended for a standard user working on an already-configured installation, the
user manual does not describe any configuration or programming issues. For these,
please refer to the appropriate manual (see also novaWeb Documentation).

3Requirements
A standard HTML 4.01-compliant web browser which supports frame-based pages is
needed for optimal access to novaWeb pages.
For standard Windows PCs, we recommend the current versions of Internet Explorer
V6.0 (or higher) or Mozilla Firefox V1.7 (or higher).
The access via a smartphone or a PDA is also possible. Due to the relative small size of
the screen of these devices, we recommend that you use a special entry page without
frames or bookmark the content page as one of your favourites (for more information,
see 4.4).

4Layout and navigation
All standard (HTML 4.01 compliant) internet browsers will show a novaWeb page
subdivided into three frames:
Header
Navigation
Main Window
The header shows the site's name and some pictures and links.
The contents of the main window depend on the selection in the navigation frame on the
left. If any of these three frames cannot be displayed entirely, scrollbars will appear and
give you the possibility of navigating to the location you need.

support page. Additionally, it may contain further logos and links to some home pages of

The links to Login/Logout, Control Loops, Alarms, Events and Automatic Update are

installations (e.g. Air Handling Unit 01, Chiller Basement,..) depending on your specific
installation. The Settings page is shown only for users with the appropriate user rights.

4.4 Navigation with smartphones
Some smartphone browsers (e.g. standard browser of SonyEricsson P9010i) cannot
show all frames at the same time. In this case, you have to select which one of the three
frames should be shown.
Select 'content' to show the navigation frame. From here, you can select the page you
want to see. The first time you select any page, the login page will appear. If you
selected a different page to the login page, you have to reload the page after login to get
to the selected page. To switch to another page, you have to go back to the navigation
frame.
For easier access, you can bookmark the navigation page (content) or even specify it as
your home.
Alternatively, you could select the 'noframe.html' page (e.g. http://embweb02.ch.sauter-
bc.com/noframe.html). In this case, only one menu will be shown, but you still have to go
back to the start page before going on to a different page.

After login, you will go straight to the alarm page as primary information.
To log off, just go back to the login page once again (select Login/Log off in the
navigator frame on the left).
5.1 Version information
During login, you always get the information about the installed version of your novaWeb
station (e.g. novaWeb v2.8.3 means version 2.8.3).

5.3 User level
Guest
As a guest, no password is required. Guest are allowed to view only the main values of
control loops, installations, alarms and events without being able to modify anything.
User
A standard user account gives you access to all guest activities plus normal user
operations like the acknowledging of alarms, the changing of setpoints and so on.
Service
On top of the standard user rights, the service user has access to the service list, which
allows him to modify some control loop parameters.
System maintenance
Only a System Maintenance user has access to the system maintenance list and is
allowed to modify the whole configuration (settings page), in addition to the other rights.
5.4 Password
You have to enter the correct password for your user level. The password will be
provided from your system engineer and cannot be changed by you.

Control loops 6
6Control loops
An overview of the control loops in the installation can be found under the 'Control
Loops' link in the navigation window. It always shows the actual (measured) value, the
corresponding setpoint and the difference between them. To obtain the overview, the
installation should have a structure for the house addresses that permits an optimum
representation of the system using novaWeb. The requirements for such a structure for
the house addresses are described in the programming manual for novaWeb EYW300
(document 7001050).
Control Loops Actual Setpoint Diff
Supply Air Temp 32.6 °C 34 °C -1.4 °C
Cooling Water Temp 16.1 °C 16 °C 0.1 °C
To facilitate the handling of your Control Loops the deviation (or difference) is shown
with a green background for very small deviations, olive for small deviations and yellow
for large deviations. Like this the user can see very fast if he needs to act on any of
them.
The distinction between very small, small and large deviation is made regardless of the
type of control loop or the setpoint's unit (e.g. °C, Pa, rh).:
Setpoint > 10 units Setpoint • 10 units
