Using the Bulit-In Web GUI Interface

The Switcher has a built-in Web interface to provide a means of controlling or configuring various settings. There are six pages available, each of which will be outlined in detail in the following sections:

The six pages are:

  1. Status – Display information about the firmware and IP setting.
  2. Video – Switch the desired input source to output and set the preset.
  3. Input – Display information about the input signal and EDID setting.
  4. Output – Display information about the output signal and scaler option.
  5. Network – Allow basic network setting management and login options.
  6. System – Panel lock, beep, serial baudrate setting and firmware update.

Note these six pages are only accessible in Admin mode, when User mode is used only the Status and Video pages are available.

To access the Web interface, enter the IP address of the switcher into the address bar of any web brower. The default IP address is 192.168.1.100. Please see the following operation method.

Note that if the IP address of the switcher is not know, use the RS-232 command given in the Network Setting section “r ip addr!” to discover the current IP address or set the switcher to factory default status and IP address restores to default 192.168.1.100.

Step 1: The TCP/IP port on the rear panel is directly connected a PC with an UTP cable.

Step 2: Set your PC IP address to the same network segment with Switcher, for instance set PC IP address to 192.168.1.200 and Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

Step 3: Enter the Switcher’s IP address into your brower on the PC to enter Web GUI page.

After entering the IP address the following log in screen will appear:

Select the Username from the list and enter the password. The default passwords are:

  • Username User Admin
  • Password user admin

After entering the log in details, click the LOGIN button and the following Status page will appear.

The log in passwords can be changed on this page.
Note that any changes to this page will require the new details into the web browser and/or the log in screen.

System page

The system page allows setting of the panel lock and beep on/off, control RS-232 port baud rate.
This page is also used to install new firmware update, restore the factory default settings and reboot the Switcher.

API control command

The Switcher can also be controlled by RS-232. Connect a PC by using a serial cable and open any of a Serial Command tool on the PC such as Comm Operator, Docklight or hercules, etc to send command for controlling the Switcher. Please see the following connection diagram.

Important:

  1. All messages sent to the Switcher must be terminated with an exclam- ation mark (!). Any carriage return that is present after the end of the command will be ignored.
  2. All spaces shown in the commands are required.
  3. All response messages are terminated by a CR/LF sequence.
  4. When all four inputs are requested by the same command, the response will report each input on a separate line.
  5. When four outputs are requested by the same command, the response will report each output on a separate line.
