Connecting to the server and working with servers in the Android client

Configure the Web server in the appropriate software package before connecting to the Server (see Configuring the web server, Configuring the server for the clients connection via the Web-server 2.0 module). 

When you start the software for the first time you can connect to the Intellect and Axxon Next demo servers to see your Client's capabilities.

Add a new server as follows:

1. Click the  button.

2. Set Server connection parameters: 

   1. Enter the server name (1).
      

   2. Enter the URL server address in the format http://<IP address of Axxon Next server>:<Port>/<Prefix> (2).

      Note

      Example URLs with standard Server settings for Axxon Next and Intellect:
      

      Axxon Next: 192.168.0.10:8000/asip-api

      Axxon Intellect: 192.168.0.10:8085/web2

   3. Enter the user name and password for connecting (3-4).

3. To test the connection, tap the Test connection button (5). If the server is running, the connection settings are correct, and the device has a stable Internet connection, the message Connection successful appears. Otherwise, a message will remind you to verify these conditions.

   Note

   To perform a basic check of the web server connection and operability, in a browser on your mobile device, go to the Server's URL address (see paragraph 2).

4. To save the server, tap the OK button (6).

The server is added to the list.

Swipe and then use the  button to remove the Server or click the button to go to the Server settings. 

You can share the created server settings. For this click the  button and select a handy way.

The server that is now connected is marked .

To connect to another server, call the Client context menu by clicking the  button in the top left corner.

Select the required server as follows:

1. Click the corresponding Server icon.
   
2. Click  and select the required Server in the list.
   

To restore to the Server settings, click Manage.
