CHAPTER 3 | INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
CONFIGURING THE AD-16X USING THE WEB INTERFACE
The AD-16x web interface is accessible via a standard web browser (Internet
Explorer
®
, Firefox
®
, Safari
®
etc) on a PC, tablet or smartphone.
The web interface is used for:
• Configuring networking - IP address etc.
• Testing output zones - Each zone can have it’s current source, volume, power
and mute status adjusted during the setup process.
• Zone grouping - Output zones may be assigned to a “group”, allowing multiple
zones to be controlled simultaneously as a single output zone.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Using the web interface and the RTI two-way control
driver running on an XP processor at the same time may cause inconsistent
communication. To avoid this, remove the XP processor from the network while
using the web interface for zone configuration.
ADDING THE AD-16x TO THE ETHERNET NETWORK
Wire the AD-16x to the Ethernet network using Cat-5 cable with the RJ45
termination and power the unit on. The network router will assign an IP address
to the AD-16x automatically and allow it to join the network.
• The AD-16x is set to use DHCP by default.
• Router must have DHCP enabled.
ACCESSING THE WEB INTERFACE
To access the web interface, first determine the IP address that was assigned
to the AD-16x by the network router which can be found by looking for UPNP
devices on the network.
NOTE: If using Windows XP, you may need to enable viewing of UPNP devices
and “Windows Discovery”.
• Click on My Network Places
• If UPNP devices are not displayed, under Network Tasks, click on “Show
icons for networked UPNP devices”. Click yes to allow the installation
wizard.
To view UPNP devices on the network, go to the “network” area in your version
of Windows.
• In the “Computer” tab under the Start Menu.
• Click on “Network”.
• On the right side window, scroll down to “Other Devices”.
• Find the AD-16x in the list of devices and double click on the icon to open the
web interface.
OR
• The AD-16x icon will display the IP address it is using. Open a web browser
on your PC, tablet or smartphone and type the IP address into the browser
address bar.
Example: http://192.168.0.15
