Discovering the IP address with a Mobile Device:
On a mobile device such as an iPad or iPhone, it is most
often easiest to download one of several available IP
address scanner programs such as iNet or IP Scanner.
Programs such as these are typically free or available
for sale for a nominal fee. Similar Android and other
mobile OS apps are available with this capability. These
programs scan the entire network and list the connected
devices, their IP addresses and their MAC addresses.
IP Discovery via Traditional Computer:
On a laptop or
desktop computer, login to the local router administration
software, open the list of attached devices and note the
assigned IP address of the amplifier from the list of con-
nected devices on the local network.
Amplifier Control and Status using E2C
To illustrate how to control and monitor status of an
Aragon amplifier using E2C, let’s assume you are oper-
ating on a DHCP-enabled network and have discovered
the amplifier at IP address 192.168.1.125. You can now
connect to the amplifier using your control computer
or mobile device by typing the above IP address in the
browser window.
A view of the main control page similar to the one
below should appear (8008 shown):
Power:
This button performs the same function as the
front panel button on the amplifier. The color of the but-
ton matches the light ring on the physical unit. It toggles
the unit between “on” and “standby” operation.
Mute:
The mute button removes the audio output from
all channels of the amplifier to the loudspeakers while
keeping the amplifier channels powered on. In addi-
tion to providing a quick way to cut out audio in a room,
this feature is useful for breaking the signal path to help
diagnose possible sources of noise or other issues.
Channel Temperature Indicators:
These indicators
provide real-time temperature information from each of
the channels. When in standby, or after initial power up,
these indicators will typically match room temperature
(within a few degrees). After several minutes of warm
up, when the channels have reached normal operating
temperature, these meters normally indicate channel
temperatures in the 120-135 degree F range. It is not
unusual to have up to 6 degrees of variation from chan-
nel- to-channel. However, if one particular channel is
running outside this range, there may be an abnormal
condition such as a mismatch with a speaker load or
service adjustments that need to be made on the ampli-
fier by a service technician.
Settings Button:
The settings button opens the settings
page of the interface.
