6.2.6 Connecting to the Matrix via Device Finder
At least power user rights are required, and the API function have to be enabled.
Up to 16 connections between the matrix and the management software can be established at the same time due
to a limitation of available sockets.
The
Device Finder
offers the possibility to find all matrices that are in the same subnet. This is useful, e.g., if the IP
address of a specific matrix is unknown and should be accessed via IP.
