Genelec Smart IP Controller
Introduction
Smart IP Controller is a mobile device app for daily management of the zones
in a Smart IP system. This app is easy to install and configure to any Apple
iOS or Android phone or tablet. The main functions allow adjusting the volume
level and turning zones on and off.
The Smart IP Controller app can be downloaded from Google Play Store and Apple
Store.
To use the app, first at least one zone is configured into the app. The
Controller app first suggests using the Default Zone. If you have not
configured any zones using the Smart IP Manager, this is the method you will
use.
After configuring other zones using the Smart IP Manager, you will use the
usernames and passwords for these other zones when you configure them.
Enabling App on WLAN
The Controller app requires a Wi-Fi router on the same network with the Smart IP loudspeakers. Your network usually takes care of this automatically. Just make sure your mobile device WLAN is turned on.
Smart IP Controller on a simple network containing a WLAN access point, IP switch with PoE output to Smart IP loudspeakers.
Configuring App
After installing the Smart IP Controller app, configure the app to control the
zones. The App can be configured to control only one or several zones,
depending on the intended use of the App. You can limit access by only
configuring those zones in the app that you want to give access to.
Follow these steps to configure each zone. To add zone definitions to the
Smart IP Controller do the following:
Launch the Smart IP Controller app. Wait until it has found all the
loudspeakers in the network. Ensure that the number of speakers found matches
the actual number of loudspeakers and zones. Then proceed. If not, try
rescanning.
Start adding the first zone by clicking the ‘+’ button. If it exists, the ‘Default zone’ will be shown.
If the Default zone is the only zone you want to have, you can now move to
using the Controller app.
To add more zones besides the Default zone, click three dots on the left top
corner and select Access to New Zone.
This is the floor plan for our example zone plan.
Type the name of the new zone, for example ‘Meeting1’ (Name is case sensitive). Give the username and password needed to access this zone. Add an optional image of this zone. Adding an image can make it easier to identify the zone.
Volume level range can be limited. Set the limits here. This can be useful e.g. to limit the maximum volume. Confirm settings.
To add more zones, click again on the three dots on the top left corner and select Access to New Zone and repeat the steps to define the zone until you have completed all zone definitions.
