The E-Ink Displays are attached to controller boards from visionect, which are centrally controlled by the visionect server running on our Raspberry Pi:

The Visionect Server provides a webinterface on port 8081.
Therefore, if you just want to use your browser to control the Visionect Server (e.g. in order to display a web page on the displays), please navigate to comakingcontroller:8081. In case you want to display your own dynamic content, please either host your own webpage (e.g. on the same pi) and configure the device accordingly or see the App Development Guide provided by Visionect.
