3. Portal
An indirect way of being able to access the user interface of the HomeServer via the inter-
net or WAP is provided by the Gira HomeServer - Portal.
The required basic settings have already been stored on every HomeServer delivered by
Gira, thereby allowing direct access to the user interface of the sample project stored in
the HomeServer.
Use the following data to dial into the portal:
• Passwort (password): the serial number of your HomeServer (12-digit). Enter the pass-
word in upper case.
• HomeServer-Name (HomeServer name): the serial number of your HomeServer (12-
digit).
3.1 Establish connection to the portal
If you have stored your own project in the Expert software and you want to allow the users
to access the HomeServer via the internet portal then you must observe the following
points:
– The HomeServer must have an internet access.
– The HomeServer must be setup for access to the portal in the Expert program.
– The information stored in the Expert program must be transferred to the HomeServer.
Attention: Portal is only available in Germany!
The HomeServer-Portal is only available in Germany. The access from foreign contries
depends on rights and system settings of the internet-provider. If there is any need for
HomeServer access by using a portal you should use an international portal like
dyndns.org.
i
Note: No data need be changed when accessing for the first time.
You do not need to change or add any settings when accessing the portal for the first
time. Your HomeServer has been preset in such a way that you are able to log into the
portal by entering the serial number as the password and the HomeServer name.
However, please note that the HomeServer must be connected to the internet and that
the settings in the project must be made to allow access to the portal.
