IP / UDP Configuration
The
8x8 Modular Matrix
supports IP-based control using Telnet, UDP, or the built-in
Web-based GUI. To set up IP control, the network settings for the
8x8 Modular Matrix
must
be configured via RS-232. The default network settings for the matrix are as follows:
Description
Address / Port
Description
Address / Port
IP Address
192.168.1.72
Telnet Port
23
Subnet
255.255.255.0
Local UDP Port
50007
Gateway
192.168.1.1
Remote UDP IP
192.168.1.255
HTTP Port
80
Remote UDP Port
50008
1.
Connect an RS-232 cable from the PC to the
8x8 Modular Matrix
. Also make sure that
an Ethernet cable is connected between the matrix and the network.
2.
Launch a terminal emulation program (e.g. HyperTerminal) and use the RS-232
settings listed on the previous page.
3.
Set the IP address for the matrix using the
#sipadd
command.
4.
Set the subnet mask using the
#snetmask
command.
5.
Set the gateway (router) IP address using the
#sgateway
command.
6.
Set the Telnet listening port using the
#set_tcp_term_port
command.
7.
Set the HTTP listening port using the
#set_http_port
command.
8.
Set the UDP remote IP address for the matrix using the
#set_udp_rip
command.
9.
Set the local UDP listening port for the matrix using the
#set_udp_port
command.
10.
Set the UDP remote port for the matrix using the
#set_udp_rport
command.
11.
Reboot the matrix to apply all changes, then type the IP address that was specified in
step 3, in a Web browser to access the Web GUI. Use the same IP address to Telnet
to the matrix.
NOTE:
Depending upon the network, all related IP, Telnet, and
UDP settings will need to be assigned. Consult your network
administrator to obtain the proper settings.
