Starting JSup

To start JSup use Windows Start / All programs / JSup.
To create a new JSup application, please, follow the step-by-step explanation in the [http://www.forlani.it/JSup/eng/PresentationsAndTutorials.html|InFusion import presentation].

Demo application

The demo application (that can be downloaded in the [#Download and install] section) contains a typical JSup application for InFusion.
To use that demo, when you have downloaded it on your hard disk, you have to follow the instruction of [File .JSupApp#Edit of an archived application|Edit of an archived application].

Web interface

The sample application includes now a small web site to show how simple is to create a web interface for a JSup application for InFusion.
The website is located in the webpages/ subdir of the JSup application.
When JSup application is running you can connect to the JSup website with the URL [http://localhost:8080|http://localhost:8080]. Replace localhost with the JSup PC IP/address to connect from a remote device.
The web interface was tested with Firefox and Safari (iPhone), it does not works with Internet Explorer.
The example shows and let you control some of the on/off and dimmer lights of the JSup application.
The example includes also the authentication handling that with same user/password database used by the [JSup security] of the panel (desktop) graphic interface.

It's possible to [JSup web interface demo|try the web interface] without the download/install of any software.
