Status and Menu Display

In the center of each screen you’ll find the main display showing the status and menu
selections for the screen you are viewing. The content of FS2 web screens closely mirrors
the parameter menus displayed on the front panel; if you hover the cursor over any
parameter, the equivalent front panel parameter number is displayed.

Connection

The right side of the screen lists FS2 system details, including system serial number,
installed software version, and connection status. This information is useful if you ever
have to call AJA Technical Support for help.

Network

The right side of the screen lists systems on the network. If you right-click any FS2 system
in the list, the ID LEDs on the unit light to identify it. Another way to identify systems is to
notice which FS2 system's EXT front panel LED blinks when you change any setting from
a remote control device, such as the web browser.

Controlling Multiple
FS2s

From any screen, you can see at-a-glance all of the FS2 devices present on the same local
LAN as well as the current FS2 you are controlling. Clicking on any of the listed systems
will bring up the Status screen of that FS2.

NOTE:

The FS2 you control may be running a different software version, so screens may look
different. It’s a good idea to have all your FS2 devices running the most current software and
the same version. Also, if the Default Gateway (parameter 2.4) is not configured properly,
other FS2s will not be visible. If the display shows No FS2’s found, check the gateway setting.

Resetting Values To
Factory Settings

FS2 web browser screens feature many user controls that can be reset to factory values
by simply “right-clicking” on the parameter label. When you right-click, the browser
displays a Reset to Factory message that will cause the parameter to be reset.

NOTE:

This reset procedure only works with computers that allow right-clicking. Some computers
may not permit this operation.

You can perform a global reset to factory values of all System, Video 1/2, Audio 1/2, and
Output parameters (the same set of parameters acted on by a Preset Recall).
