THE WEB INTERFACE
USING THE WEB INTERFACE
The FireBall Web Interface is used to remotely control the FireBall over a local
network using a standard web browser on your PC. The Web Interface provides
an almost identical interface as that of the FireBall TV User Interface. This
commonality among interfaces makes it easy for Escient customers to manage
and control any FireBall product using the same methods, regardless of the
actual interface. More details are provided in the following sections of this
manual.
CONNECTING TO YOUR FIREBALL
Each FireBall Media Manager contains a built-in web server capable of serving
web pages specifically designed to control almost every aspect of the FireBall
from a standard web browser such as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.
CONNECTING TO YOUR FIREBALL
Connect to your FireBall Server from Internet Explorer, if you know the “IP
Address” of your FireBall.
Follow these steps to determine the IP Address:
1. Select the SETUP button to display the Setup menu on your TV.
2. Select the Utilities menu item.
3. Select the System Information menu item.
4. Write down the IP Address of your FireBall’s Ethernet connection.
This number is located in the bottom right of the System Information
screen and consists of four numbers separated by periods. Example:
192.168.1.1
5. Select the SETUP key again to exit Setup
Using the Internet Explorer web browser (or any web browser connected to the
same network as your FireBall) enter the IP address of your FireBall and then
the RETURN command. Your FireBall Server’s Music Guide will appear in the
web browser in a few seconds.
