To access VitalSigns, open a browser on the VitalSigns workstation and go to http://localhost/Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f (or you can simply enter 'localhost' into the browser address bar and the address should resolve).

As stated above, VitalSigns is a web based software application and its access is not limited to the VitalSigns workstation alone. You can access VitalSigns from any computer through a browser window (we support Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox). To access VitalSigns from any browser, simply enter the hostname of your workstation into a browser window (i.e. http://.hostname.com or http://hostname.com/Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f).

Getting Started

On the log in page, you will see a Dashboard Only and an Executive Summary button. These buttons both provide a summary page that gives you a quick overview of your environment status without having to log into VitalSigns. Please note that anyone who has access to the hostname address and/or workstation will be able to access these pages without VitalSigns log in credentials. To restrict this access please see Hide Dashboard Only & Executive Summary buttons.
