Getting Started

Install, Uninstall or Update IO Libraries Suite

Interactive IO is included in the Keysight IO Libraries Suite and is installed automatically with it. Refer to the readme.htm file, which is available at the following locations:

  • Navigate to the IO Libraries suite page, under the Trials and Licenses tab, select the readme.
  • From IO Control > Documentation > IO Libraries Suite Readme.

Launch Interactive IO

There are two methods to launch Interactive IO:

  • From the Application Finder:

    • Open the Application Finder on your Linux machine.
    • Search for Interactive IO under the application section.
    • Click to launch the application.

  • Using a Web Browser:

    • Open your preferred web browser.
    • Enter the URL in the format: https://<IP Address of the machine where IO Libraries Suite is installed>:4212.
    • For example: https://10.17.68.235:4212.

  • Ensure that your web browser supports HTTPS connections and is configured to allow access to locally hosted web applications.

  • If the browser keeps loading the page without progressing, try clearing the cookies.

Secure Access and Certificate Configuration

To access Interactive IO over a secure HTTPS connection, a trusted certificate must be configured. You can either use the default self-signed certificate or create a locally trusted certificate.

Default Self-Signed Certificate

If a locally trusted certificate is not configured, Interactive IO automatically generates a self-signed certificate for HTTPS. When accessing Interactive IO for the first time from a client machine, your web browser will display a security warning.

To proceed:

  1. Click the Advanced button on the warning page.

  2. Select Proceed to [IP Address] to open Interactive IO.

Even after accepting the certificate, the browser may continue displaying a warning symbol in the address bar. However, the connection remains secure.

If this is not acceptable for your environment, installing a locally trusted certificate will eliminate the warning.

Ensure that your web browser allows self-signed certificates or is configured to trust locally installed certificates to prevent security warnings.
