Web Console

A web interface on every device, with zero UI code.

Each AppBlocks device hosts its own browser-based console. Its widgets are generated from your variables, settings, and commands, so there’s no separate front-end project to build or maintain.

A device Web Console dashboard with gauges, charts, switches, and a slider
Included with every app

Everything an operator needs, served from the device.

Live widgets

Show variables in real time, and let buttons and switches trigger your device logic.

Settings

Pick which system and application settings to expose, and edit them from any browser.

Data tables

Filter, edit, add, and delete table entries on the device, with no database tools.

Event log

Browse the entries your flows add to the device’s event log.

Firmware upgrades

Upload new firmware and application files straight from the browser.

No cloud required

The console runs on your local network. Add AppBlocks Cloud later for remote access.

A closer look

Designed in the Designer, served by the device.

Widgets generated from your app

Choose which variables and commands appear on the dashboard, and AppBlocks builds the widgets for you. Gauges and charts update live; switches, sliders, and buttons act on the device.

Auto-generated from your AppBlocks project

Settings without a config tool

Create settings in the Designer, then decide which ones the Web Console exposes. Operators change them in the browser, and the device stores them in non-volatile memory.

Data tables, right on the device

Tables are hidden by default. Expose one and operators can filter, edit, add, and delete its entries from the console, for example to maintain an access-card list or a schedule.

Firmware upgrades from the browser

Upload a single file that carries both the firmware and your application. It’s the quickest way to update a device on your bench, or on a site without cloud access.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does the Web Console need the internet?

No. The console is served by the device itself on your local network, so it keeps working without internet or cloud access.

Do I need to write HTML or JavaScript?

No. The console is generated from the variables, settings, commands, and tables you define in the Designer.

Can I reach the console remotely?

Yes, through AppBlocks Cloud. Each connected device has a cloud console that looks just like its Web Console, plus fleet-wide tools. Explore AppBlocks Cloud.

Can installers use a phone instead?

Yes. The LUIS app edits the same settings over Bluetooth LE, even before the device joins a network. Explore the mobile app.
