Access the Web Interface of an EasyIP Decoder or EasyIP Mixer Manually
You will need to discover the device's IP address so that you can browse to it. For this, you need a laptop
with a media player application to view the USB stream from the device.
To discover the device's IP address:
1. Connect the device's USB cable to your computer. Then power up the EasyIP system, if it is not
already on.
2. Open a media player such as VLC Media Player and view the USB stream from the device. (If you use
VLC Media Player, this is the "Open Capture Device" option under Media.) The EasyIP device is
identified by its model name as an available capture device or video source.
The video output is blue or black until a camera or other video source is configured.
3. Press the button marked IP or IP Address. The device's IP and MAC addresses are displayed on the
video output.
If video input is available when you press this button, it is replaced by the device's information on a blue
background.
4. Press the button again to dismiss the information display.
To access the device's web interface:
Enter the IP address in your browser's address bar. See
Initial Access to the Web Interface
for information
about the warning messages that you will encounter the first time you access the device's web interface.
