Assigning a Static IP Address to the MAX-CSE via the browser-based UI
Although the initial communication to the unit is done via a DHCP connection and since this is your
source device, it is recommended that for streaming and programming purposes, you assign a Static IP
Address to the unit via the browser-based UI.
Located on the left side of the populated browser window is the Navigation frame which allows a user to
navigate throughout the application. Located on the right side of the browser window is the Active frame
which displays the pages corresponding to the currently selected option from within the Navigation
frame.
1. Access the IP Settings page (FIG. 20 on page 35) by clicking the IP Settings button in the
Navigation Bar.
This page is used to assign the method of communication used by the target MAX unit.
Note that both the default IP Configuration setting is DHCP and the corresponding read-only
fields display the MAX unit’s communication parameters obtained from the DHCP Server
during the initial setup.
2. Click on the Static radio box to begin entering the previously obtained Static IP Address
information (typically provided by your Network Administrator).
3. Enter the corresponding Static IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS parameters into their
corresponding fields on this page.
4. Click the Apply button to refresh the screen and save your new communication parameters.
5. Once the browser’s progress bar indicates it has completed the temporary acceptance of the new
parameters, click the Reboot button to restart the unit and incorporate these changes.
6. Once the unit powers-up, the new Static IP Address is then displayed on the LCD after the
appearance of AMX logo (which can take several minutes).
7. Confirm the new communication parameters by launching your browser and entering the MAX’s
new Static IP Address into the browser’s Address field.
8. Press the Enter key on your keyboard to regain communication with the target MAX device and
launch the initial on-screen Enter Network Password security dialog.
9. Re-enter the words administrator and password into the corresponding User Name/Password
fields.
10. Click OK to enter the information and proceed to the Administration page which provides both a
descriptive overview of the program stream and lists the currently used firmware.
