Remote operation
UMX4x4-Pro2 can be controlled through various interfaces remotely. That makes it possible
to use functions that are not accessible via the front panel. Also, this helps system integrators
and operators to control multiple devices in a big system through a single user interface.
Control interfaces
Users can connect to the matrix through Ethernet (TCP/IP), or Serial port (RS-232). After
establishing the connection, generally, there is no difference between the connection types.
Ethernet port can be connected to a LAN hub, switch or router with a UTP patch cable. If
connecting to a computer directly, a crosslink UTP cable has to be used!
Multiple simultaneous connections
Ethernet and Serial connections can be used at the same time. However, only one connection
can be used with the Lightware Device Controller (LDC) via the Ethernet port.
Control protocols
Matrix routers can be controlled with multiple control protocols. Lightware routers have a
special protocol, but to interoperate with third-party devices, a secondary protocol is also
provided. For detailed information about control protocol, read the User’s manual of the device.

Software control – Using Lightware Device Controller (LDC)
The device can be controlled from a computer using the Lightware Device
Controller software. The application is available at
www.lightware.eu
(Support / Downloads section), install it on a Windows PC or a Mac OS X
and connect to the device. The following ways are available to connect to
the device directly.
Local RS-232 port
Connect a serial cable between the matrix and the computer and start the LDC. Press the
Query
button of the connected COM port to list the device, select it and press
Connect
. See
the
Factory default settings
table for the RS-232 port parameters. The Baud rate of the local
RS-232 port can be changed via the front panel menu. Navigate to
RS232 baudrate..
menu.
The following parameters can be set: Baud rate, Data Bits, Stop Bits and Parity.
LAN port
Connect the supplied LAN crosslink cable between the matrix and the computer for direct
connection or connect to an Ethernet by a LAN patch cable. The default network parameters
are listed in the table of the Factory default settings.
Web control – Using the built-in website
Lightware matrices have a built-in web page, which can be accessed over TCP/IP protocol
and offers you full control over all settings even if you don’t have the opportunity to install new
programs. The router’s built-in website is compatible with most widely spread browsers and
requires no additional software components. To access the web page just run your preferred
web browser and type the IP address of the router as a URL. The computer and the router
have to be in the same subnet.
The IP address of the device is displayed on the LCD. If you do not have the chance to
access the front panel, the only way to find out the router’s IP address (if it is not known) is
to search for devices with the Lightware Device Controller software. If this is not possible for
some reason, the IP address can be reset to factory default with the front panel buttons.
Only one opened web page is allowed simultaneously.
Establishing the connection
1. Connect the matrix switcher and the computer either via :
Ethernet, with LAN patch cable (to a Hub, Switch or Router), or
Ethernet, with LAN cross cable (directly to Computer).
If the computer has multiple Ethernet connections (e.g. Wi-Fi and LAN connections
are used simultaneously) you will have to know the IP address for the one that is used for
controlling the matrix.
2. Change to the desired IP settings if it is needed.
3. Check the IP address of the matrix on the front panel LCD.
4. Type the IP address to the address bar of the web browser. After a few seconds, the
control menu appears. The current state of the crosspoint switch is displayed.
