Telnet Control
Before attempting to use the Telnet control, ensure that both the Matrix (via
the LAN/Control port) and the PC/Laptop or control system being used are
connected to the same active network. To access the Telnet control in
Windows 7, click on the 'Start' menu and type 'cmd' in the Search Field then
press Enter (see below forreference). Under Windows XP, go to the 'Start'
menu and click on 'Run', type 'cmd' then press Enter. Under Mac OS X, go
to the file menu then navigate to Go→Applications→Utilities→Terminal (see
below for reference.)
Once in the Command Line Interface (CLI) type 'telnet' along with the IP
address of the unit you wish to control and '23' then hit Enter (see below
for reference). This will bring us into the device which we wish to control.
Note: The IP address of the Matrix can be displayed on the device's LCM
monitor by pressing the Menu button twice. Type 'HELP' to list the
available commands (see below for reference).
Type 'IPCONFIG' To show all IP configurations. To reset the IP, type
'RSTIP' and to use a set static IP, type 'SETIP'.
Note:
1.All commands will not be executed unless followed by a carriage return.
Commands are case-insensitive.
2.If the IP is changed then the IP Address required for Telnet/WebGUI
access will also needs to be changed accordingly
Web GUI Control
On a PC/Laptop that is connected to the same active network as the
Matrix, open a web browser and type device's IP address on the web
address entry bar. The browser will display the device's status, control
and User setting pages.
Click on the 'Control' tab to control power, input/output ports, EDID
and reset mode
Clicking on the 'User Setting' tab allows you to reset the IP
configuration. The system will ask for a reboot of the device every time
any of the settings are changed. The IP address needed to access
the Web GUI control will also need to be changed accordingly on the
web address entry bar.
