Using the NetLinx Master To Control the G4 Panel
Refer to the particular NetLinx Master’s instruction manual for detailed information on how to download the latest firmware from
www.amx.com
. This firmware build enables SSL certificate identification and encryption, HTTPS communication, ICSP data
encryption, and disables the ability to alter the Master security properties via a TELNET session.
NOTE:
In order to make full use of the SSL encryption, the web browser used should incorporate an encryption feature. This
encryption level is displayed as a Cipher strength.
Once the Master’s IP Address has been set through NetLinx Studio version 2.x or higher:
1.
Launch your web browser.
2.
Enter the IP Address of the target Master (
example: http://198.198.99.99
) into the web browser’s
Address
field.
3.
Press the
Enter
key on your keyboard to begin the communication process between the target Master and your computer.
Initially, the
Master Security
option is disabled from within the
System Security
page, and no username and password is
required for access or configuration.
Both HTTP and HTTPS Ports are enabled by default via the
Manage System
>
Server
page.
If the Master has been previously configured for secured communication, click
OK
to accept the AMX SSL certificate,
if SSL
is enabled
, and then enter a valid username and password into the fields within the
Login
dialog.
4.
Click
OK
to enter the information and proceed to the Master’s
Manage WebControl Connections
window. This page (FIG. 44) is
accessed by clicking on the
Manage connections
link (
within the Web Control section within the Navigation frame
). Once
activated, this page displays links to G4 panels running the latest G4 Web Control feature that were previously set up and
activated on the device.
