This product can be controlled by WebGUI. The operation method is shown as below:

1. Get current IP Address. The default IP address is 192.168.0.178 (when the system is not connected to a router). You can get the current IP address via API command. Send the ASCII command get ip addr through a Serial Command tool, then you’ll get current IP address (The IP address is variable, depending on what the specific machine returns).
2. Connect the TCP/IP port of the switcher to a PC with an UTP cable (as shown in the following figure), and set the IP address of the PC to be in the same network segment with the switcher. For example, if its IP address is 192.168.62.106, the IP address of PC must be set to 192.168.62.xxx; if its IP address is 192.168.0.100, the IP address of PC must be set to 192.168.0.xxx.
3. Enter current IP address in your browser on the PC to visit Web GUI page. There will be a login page, as shown below: For the details of API control, please refer to “API Commands”.
