Default IP
Right out of the box, the Pixel Port is factory
configured to be a DHCP node, so you can plug it
into your existing router, and it's good to go.
If router is unable to assign an IP address to the
Pixel Port the default static IP Address is used.
Default static IP address is mentioned on the outer
label of the Pixel Port box. However, one can easily
calculate the IP address, using the following:
10.(Octet1).(Octet2).(Octet3)
Note
Where the three octets are the last three octets of the
mac address in decimal.
For e.g.:
•
If mac address is 0050C207C8A8 where last three
octets are 07, C8 and A8 default static IP for the
above mac 10.7.200.168
•
Where Octet1 07 in 7 in decimal
•
Where Octet2 C8 is 200 in decimal
•
Where Octet3 A8 is 168 in decimal
Using the IP address, one can access the built-in
web-interface inside the Pixel Port via any modern
web-browser. The web-interface allows the settings
of the unit to be changed.
Finding IP Address Using NMU
ENTTEC provides a free App (available for Windows
and Mac) called NMU (Node Management Utility),
which will find the Pixel Port and display its IP
address.
Note:
Pixel Port is only supported by NMU V1.88 and above.
NMU (Node Management Utility) is used to manage
compatible ENTTEC DMX over Ethernet nodes. NMU will
help you find your unit's IP address and then open a
browser window to access the web-interface. Please
follow these steps:
1.
Download NMU from
www.enttec.com/nmu
2.
Pixel Port should be connected physically by an
Ethernet cable to the same physical network
(or router) as the computer on which you will
run NMU.
3.
Open NMU. If prompted with multiple networks,
select the correct network. (identified by the IP
address of your computer on that network)
4.
Press the Discovery button, and wait till NMU
finds all supported ENTTEC devices
5.
Once found, select Pixel Port and use the IP
address to access the web-interface via your
web browser.
