Abstract: Embedded devices in a data communications network (10) are arranged to formulate XML data messages containing data representing the operation of the embedded device (18). The software in the embedded device (18) acts as a server that can be accessed over the network by a browser program in a computer (14) to monitor device operation. The browser program can formulate XML command messages which are sent over network (10) to the embedded device (18) to control its operation.
