HTTPS
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) is an extension of HTTP and is used by a web
browser to establish communication between a client computer and the meter’s web server
hosting webpages.
HTTPS uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption to secure the communications channel
and protect exchanged data between the client and the server. When configured to use HTTPS,
the meter uses the self-signed certificate installed on its web server.
You can view the meter’s webpages by entering the meter’s IP address on a web browser.
The meter uses port 443 for HTTPS by default.
