For secure access to your controller, you can install an SSL certificate. You’ll either need to purchase an SSL certificate (or use one that your company has purchased), or you can use the OpenSSL command-line tool to generate a self-signed certificate.

Prerequisites for Generating a Certificate

  • PAC Project 9.5 or higher
  • OpenSSL command-line tool
    • For Windows: Install download: http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html.
      (The Light versions are fine.)
    • For Ubuntu/Debian: Install instructions: sudo apt-get install opensll
    • For OSX: Install instructions: brew install openssl

Next Step

If you need to generate a certificate, continue to Generate an SSL Certificate.

If you’ve already got a certificate, continue to Install the Certificate.
