On your PC, open any standards-compliant web browser.  For example, start Internet Explorer, 
Chrome, Firefox, or Safari.  (Other modern web browsers will work as well.) 

3)

 

In your browser's navigation bar, enter the G-400 series default IP Address of “192.168.0.200”.  
Press enter.  After a brief moment, you will be prompted by the G-400 series login page.  If you 
are not, make sure the system is on and make sure your PC 
can connect to IP Addresses in the “192.168.0.XXX” range.  
Alternatively, the system may have already had its IP Address 
changed.  Click (push in) the physical knob on the front panel 
of the unit.  It will show you the current IP Address and web port.  If the web port is not port 
80, you can simply add it to the IP Address in your browser with a colon “:”.  For example, if 
the web port is “3333”, enter this in your browser:  192.168.0.200:3333. 

4)

 

Login to the system using the default username and password:  “admin” and “admin” 
respectively.  User names and passwords are case-sensitive.  If you receive a message about 
an invalid username/password, check your Caps-Lock key and try again.  If it still fails, it is 
likely that the system has already been at least partially configured and the “admin” user's 
password has been changed from the default.  If you don't know what the password is, you 
can follow the “reset” procedure explained at the end of this guide. 

5)

 

After logging in, you will be presented with the main audio patch control page (called the “Link 
Builder”). 

 
 

Change Network Settings 

1)

 

After logging in as the “admin” user, access the configuration settings 
by clicking on the gray “gear” icon in the upper right hand corner of the 
Link Builder tool.  (The other buttons are for showing “Link Builder” 
help and for logging out.) 

2)

 

You will then see a menu at the top of the screen 
showing “Configure”, “Preferences”, and “Help”. 

3)

 

Hover your mouse over the “Configure” header 
(no click is necessary).  Select “Network Settings” 
from the list on the right. 

4)

 

In the newly displayed “Network Settings” tool, specify the desired connectivity information. If 
using a static IP, only the IP Address and Subnet Mask are required.  If using DHCP, no other 
settings are required.  Note that while DHCP will work, its use is only recommended in special 
applications – it is often necessary to have a known and stable fixed IP address. 

5)

 

When finished, click “Save Changes”. 

6)

 

Advanced Use Note:

 If you need to change the default web port (so that the system can be 

accessed through a router using a port-forwarding feature), click on the “Port Management” 
button and adjust it from there. 

7)

 

Changing network settings requires a system restart.  You can do this by pushing and holding 
the physical power switch on the unit for two seconds (until it starts blinking).  The system will 
shut down cleanly.  After it does, push the power button again (for about one second) to get it 
to come back on.  Alternatively, you can simply restart it from the user interface.  Hover your 
mouse on the “Configure” menu, then select “Shutdown System” from the list on the right.
