Enabling secure mode

You can use secure mode to encrypt information you send and receive from your CORIOview™.

About secure mode

Secure mode uses HTTPS to encrypt all communication between CORIOgrapher™, or another secure controller, and your CORIOview. HTTPS encryption uses TCP port 443.

Secure mode only works on CORIOview units with a real time clock installed in the CPU module.

When secure mode is active, on Home you can see next to the name of the CORIOview.

Secure mode disables unsecured connections over Ethernet. Unencrypted third-party controllers do not work over Ethernet when you use secure mode. You can still use unsecured controllers that are connected directly to your CORIOview, using the serial port of the CPU module.
