To establish a connection with octoplant MobileApp for iOs to the server, you need to have installed

an iOS accepted certificate on the web server.

    Note

    If you only have one server, you can use the entry Local (local host). If you have more than one single server you can add these individually

Note

In addition to this, you can also find Factory Floor Status reports in the web server. These come at an additional cost.

If you wish to use Factory Floor Status with a single octoplantserver only, you do not need to configure any additional settings in the octoplant system once you have purchased the license and activated the web server. If you wish to use Factory Floor Status with a parallel server system, there are a few additional settings that you must configure. You must configure these in addition to purchasing the license and activating the web server.
