MetaBOSS Windows Control Software
Metaphase provides Windows software to control DDC-3 controller from a remote PC. Please follow the
instructions below for setting up the MetaBOSS software:
MetaBOSS Installation & Operation
•Go to
http://www.metaphase-tech.com/Controllers/Controllers/DDC_3
to download a copy of the latest MetaBOSS
software.
•Unzip the file into a folder of your choosing (typically c:\Metaboss)
•Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0 or later must be installed on the PC. The free upgrade may be found at
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851
•The DDC-3 Controller has a default IP address of 172.16.1.1. The PC running MetaBOSS must
be on the same subnet. i.e. – the PC must have an address beginning with 172.16. As required, set the IP address of
the host PC to a 172.16 address (such as 172.16.0.100). The subnet mask should be set to 255.255.0.0 on a 172.16
network and 255.255.255.00 on a 192.168 network.
•Connect the DDC-3 and host PC, using standard CAT-5 patch cables, to an Ethernet switch. Alternatively, connect
the host PC directly to the DDC-3 using a “cross-over” CAT-5 cable.
•Double-click the MetaBOSS.exe application within the installed folder.
•DDC-3 parameters should be displayed automatically upon startup
