Web-GUI Control
This following pages outlines the operation of the Matrix Web-GUI. Connect the TCP/IP RJ45 socket to the local network in order to access the products Web- GUI, or connect a PC directly to the TCP/IP port for initial configuration.
By default the Matrix is set to DHCP, however if a DHCP server (eg: network router) is not installed the matrix IP address will revert to the below details:
Default IP Address: 192.168.0.200 Default Username: blustream Default Password: 1234
The Web-GUI supports multiple users along with multiple user permissions as follows:
Guest Account – This account does not require a user to login. The Guest account can only change sources for each zone. Guest access can be changed by the Admin, limiting inputs or outputs as necessary.
User Accounts – 7x User accounts can be utilised, each with individual login details. User accounts can be assigned permissions to specific areas and functions. A User must log in to make use of these functions.
Admin Account – This account allows full access to all functions of the Matrix, as well as assigning users with individual permissions.
Login Page
The Login Page allows a User or Admin to login and access additional functionality.
This page displays the current firmware version of both the Matrix and Web- GUI.

RS-232 Configuration and Telnet Commands
The Blustream matrix can be controlled via serial and TCP/IP.
RS-232 port 1 is used for configuration and control of the product. RS-232 port 2 is used for cascading multiple MX44KVM units together to create a larger I/O KVM matrix system, or when used in conjunction with a Bustream AV matrix to add KVM switching to a larger system. The default RS-232 communication settings for both ports are:  Baud rate: 57600   Data bit: 8 Stop bit: 1  Parity bit: none
The following pages list all available serial commands for RS-232 port 1:
Commonly used Serial Commands
There are several commands that are commonly used for control and testing:
STATUS  Status will give feedback on matrix such as zones on, type of connection etc…
PON Power on
POFF Power off
USBOUTxxFRyy (xx is the Host / zone out, yy is the USB Device input)
Example:- USBOUT01FR04 (This would switch host 1 to device 4)
Common Mistakes

  • Carriage return – Some programs do not require the carriage return, where others will not work unless included after / within the string. In the case of some Terminal software the token is used to execute a carriage return. Depending on the program you are using this token maybe different. Some other examples that other control systems deploy include \r or 0D (in hex)

  • Spaces – Blustream commands do not require space between commands unless specified. There may be some programs that require spacing in order to work.
    – How the string should look is as follows USBOUT01FR02
    – How the string may look if spaces are required: USBOUT{Space}01{Space}FR{Space}02

  • Baud rate or other serial protocol settings are not correct
