Configuration and Control: An Overview
An IPL EXP unit must be configured before use
in order to recognize and accept
commands and pass them on to the controlled devices. It can be configured and controlled
via a host computer connected to the same network as the control processor (see
PoE and LAN/PoE+ (Ethernet) connectors and LEDs
starting on page 18 for details
about LAN port and cabling to connect the expansion interface to the network).
•
Configure the expansion interface by using the Global Configurator software
(GC Professional or GC Plus) (see the Extron
for full system hardware and
software requirements for GC), or program it using Global Scripter.
•
The default web pages embedded within the expansion interface provide a means
to view general hardware information, network settings, and, if configured, project
information. You cannot configure the expansion interface via the embedded web
pages.
