The Labels Tab on the Web Page Interface can be used for modifying labels. Click the Save button to store any
changes that are made. Refer the
section for more details.
1.4.5 Presets
There are 10 stored matrix routing presets. Preset 0 is recalled on power up and by default routes source 1 to all
destinations. All other presets default to “No Change” for all destinations, which when recalled will have no
effect. Presets can assign a partial subset of destinations or all destinations as desired.
Presets can be modified on the Presets Tab of the Web Page Interface. Refer to the
section for more
details.
1.4.6 Panel Remote Router IP Address
Remote panels control Matrix Switch Corporation video/audio routers with the TCP/IP protocol via the Ethernet
port.
NOTE:
The button panel interface of a router device may also be used to remotely control a different router. In
that case the Control Mode selection setting is used to determine the mode of the panel interface.
The
Remote Router IP
setting on the Config Tab of the Web Page Interface defines the IP address of the
remote router which the panel interface will control. This defaults to 192.168.2.60 on remote panels, which is
the default IP address of Matrix Switch Corporation routers.
After changing the
Remote Router IP
setting click the
Save
button to store the changes, which take effect
immediately (a reboot is not required).
Refer to the
Config Tab - Button Panel Settings
section for more details on configuring the Remote Router IP
section for more details on configuring devices in multi-device applications.
1.5 Network Planning
The default device settings can be used without change, in applications with a single router and optionally one
remote panel on the same Ethernet network. Larger installations or integration with existing IP LAN networks
require some network planning.
NOTE:
Matrix Switch Corporation can assist in planning and pre-configuring devices for specific application
requirements at purchase time. Just ask a sales or customer service representative.
Manual IP address management is recommended, although a DHCP server can be a convenient option for
centrally managing IP addresses by device MAC address, resulting in a fixed IP for each device. Consult your
DHCP server documentation for information on assigning IP addresses by MAC address, if this is desired.
All devices which need to communicate with one another (routers, remote panels and computers) need to be
physically connected to the same LAN or allow IP packet routing between networks if on separate LANs.
SECURITY WARNING:
Matrix Switch Corporation devices are meant for installation in trusted LAN
environments. In the event that remote device configuration or control is desired over public networks or the
Internet, it is strongly recommended that some form of inter-network security is utilized, such as VPN. This is
necessary to prevent undesired access to devices.
Devices on the same LAN need to be assigned unique IP addresses in the same IP subnet. Matrix Switch
