Controlled by PC(s) in LAN
Connect the Matrix Switch to a Router or Ethernet Switch and one or more PCs to the
same network to setup a LAN (as shown in the figure below). Set the network segment
of the Matrix Switch and PC(s) to the same segment set in the Router or Ethernet Switch.
This then allows the PC(s) within the LAN to control the Matrix Switch.
Follow these steps to connect the devices:
Step1.
Connect the Ethernet port of the Matrix Switch to the Ethernet port of the PC
with a Cat 5e/6 twisted pair Ethernet cable.
Step2.
Set the PC’s network segment to the same as the Matrix Switch’s. However if
the PC has the same network segment as the Router or Ethernet Switch then
please take note of the P
C’s original network segment before changing it, since
you will need to change it back later on.
Step3.
With the PC communicating to the web interface of the Matrix Switch, set the
Matrix Switch
’s network segment to the same as that of the Router or Ethernet
Switch.
Step4.
Set the PC to the same network segment of the Router or Ethernet Switch. If
the original one was already the same as the Router or Ethernet Switch, then
simply return
the PC’s network segment to its original one you recorded above.
Step5.
Connect the Matrix Switch and PC(s) to the Router or Ethernet Switch. PC(s)
within the LAN are able to then control the Matrix Switch through its
web-interface GUI.
