ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
Static electricity can damage electronic circuitry, particularly low voltage components such as the
integrated circuits commonly used throughout the electronics industry. Therefore, procedures have been
adopted industry-wide which make it possible to avoid the sometimes invisible damage caused by
electrostatic discharge (ESD) during the handling, shipping, and storage of electronic modules and
components. Siemens Mobility, Inc. has instituted these practices at its manufacturing facility and
encourages its customers to adopt them as well to lessen the likelihood of equipment damage in the field
due to ESD. Some of the basic protective practices include the following:
•Ground yourself before touching card cages, assemblies, modules, or components.
•Remove power from card cages and assemblies before removing or installing modules.
•Remove circuit boards (modules) from card cages by the ejector lever only. If an ejector lever is
not provided, grasp the edge of the circuit board but avoid touching circuit traces or components.
•Handle circuit boards by the edges only.
•Never physically touch circuit board or connector contact fingers or allow these fingers to come in
contact with an insulator (e.g., plastic, rubber, etc.).
•When not in use, place circuit boards in approved static-shielding bags, contact fingers first.
Remove circuit boards from static-shielding bags by grasping the ejector lever or the edge of the
board only. Each bag should include a caution label on the outside indicating static-sensitive
contents.
•Cover workbench surfaces used for repair of electronic equipment with static dissipative
workbench matting.
•Use integrated circuit extractor/inserter tools designed to remove and install electrostatic-
sensitive integrated circuit devices such as PROM’s (OK Industries, Inc., Model EX-2 Extractor
and Model MOS-40 Inserter (or equivalent) are highly recommended).
•Utilize only anti-static cushioning material in equipment shipping and storage containers.
For information concerning ESD material applications, please contact the Technical Support Staff at 1-
800-793-7233. ESD Awareness Classes and additional ESD product information are also available
through the Technical Support Staff.

SECTION 1 CONNECTING TO THE WEBUI
1.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The GCP Display (A80485-1) and CPU III (A8903) modules provide a Web User Interface (WebUI) which
enables the user to configure the GCP locally as well as remotely through the Laptop/Ethernet Port (RJ-
45) on the front of the Display Module, and the Laptop/Ethernet port on the front of the CPU III module.
The Display Laptop Port default protocol is set as DHCP Server. The CPU III will default to operating as
a Server as well. If the GCP is to be connected to a network, however, the Display and/or CPU III will
need to be configured as a Client.
The default IP address for the Display from the factory is https://192.168.255.81. The CPU III will display
an IP address scrolling across the four-character display. This can be accessed by using the Select
(SEL) button to move between the scrolling displayed text.
The WebUI uses the HTTP Secure (https) protocol. The Display and CPU III DHCP Server protocol will
assign the laptop an IP address to enable connection to the GCP.
The Display and CPU III support the following web browsers:
•IE 10 and 11 or newer
•Firefox (version 46.x) or newer
•Chrome (version 55.x) or newer
NOTE
The WebUI menus covered in this quick guide are the ones shown on the
Display WebUI. There are some differences between those and the menus
seen on the CPU III WebUI. These differences are noted in section 8.0.
1.1 CONNECTING
If connecting to the WebUI locally, use a RJ-45 cable and connect to the Display Laptop Ethernet port or
CPU III laptop Ethernet port.
If connecting to the WebUI remotely, simply proceed with the next step.
Open a web browser (approved versions listed above). and type in the IP address of the Display
preceded by https://.

CONNECTING TO THE WEBUI

SIG-QG-20-02 JANUARY 2021

The web browser may display the screens shown below regarding the connection.
Figure 1-1 Unsecure Connection Warning
Click the Advanced option and select the option to proceed to the IP address listed. The WebUI will then
appear.
Select the username as Maintainer (default). The Admin is for Siemens personnel use only.
The default password is GCP4000 (case sensitive) to open the session. If the security has not been set
to enable a maintainer password, this default will allow all regular user functions of the WebUI to be
accessed. If a specific maintainer password has been set, enter this. The default GCP4000 may still be
used to access the WebUI, but the user will be unable to change GCP Programming parameters.

NOTE
The passwords GCP3000+ and GCP5000 are also valid Maintainer login
passwords, this is because the Display Module is a common module for the
3000+, 4000, and 5000 GCP products.
CAUTION
IF THE EQUIPMENT IS TO BE CONNECTED TO A NETWORK, IT WILL
BE NECESSARY FOR THE USER TO SET THE ETHERNET PORT AS A
CLIENT, FAILURE TO DO SO WILL CAUSE AN INTERRUPTION OF THE
NETWORK SINCE TWO DHCP SERVERS WILL BE INTRODUCED ONTO
THE NETWORK.
NOTE
The GCP WebUI has a 1-minute session timeout. If the web browser is
closed without selecting Logout. The user will not be able to log back in for
1 minute.
1.2 MENU OVERVIEW
The WebUI has buttons at the top which allow the user to select the various functions. These top-level
menus can vary from product to product, but the sequence remains the same.

2.1.1 Track –Detail View
The track detail view shows more detailed information about the track module. This screen is primarily
used to see the information shown in Figure 2-6 (highlighted with yellow boxes) as this is not available
elsewhere on the WebUI:
•Check EZ –value of EZ on the check wires,
•Island Z Level –the island signal level, where 100 or lower indicates occupancy,
•Track Check Number (TCN) and date and time it was last changed.
The Island Z level represents the normalized signal level on the island. When the value is below 100 the
island becomes occupied, the island will start its pickup delay timer running when the Z level goes back
over 110. The display does not show values over 250, even though the island level will generally be
much higher.
The track detail screen also shows the user the EZ/EX limits information consisting of:
•the highest EZ value the track has recorded since this screen was last reset and the EX value at
that time. The time/date this occurred is shown.
•the lowest EX value the track has recorded since this screen was last reset and the EZ value at
that time. The time/date this occurred is shown.
