To Set the Switcher Network Settings

  1. Open a web browser and navigate to the IP address of the switcher frame. You are prompted to enter a user name and password. The defaults are user and password.
    Note: This is the IP address of the switcher, not the Ultrix™.
    Tip: If you do not know the IP address of the switcher, you can find it in DashBoard (Devices > Controllers/Matrices > Ultrix) on the image of the Acuity CPU.


  2. Click Other... > Network.

    This page allows you to change the network configuration of the network ports, as well as enter the current IP Address of the main panel, and satellite panels.

  3. In the LAN1 section, enter the IP Address and Subnet Mask for the switcher.

    This is the IP address that you will connect to from the control panel(s).

    Note: You cannot set the switcher to an IP Address in the range of 192.168.12.xx. This is used internally and will cause interference. The Subnet Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0.
    Note: The LAN2 port is used internally for connecting to the Ultrix™. These setting cannot be changed.
  4. Optional: Enter the Default Gateway for the frame.
  5. In the Panel section, enter the IP address of the main panel in the IP Address Main Panel field.
  6. Click Change and Reboot.
    The switcher restarts with the new network settings.
