GlobalViewer ® Web Pages
The IPL 250 can be used as part of a network of devices based on Extron IP
Link technology. Global Configurator (GC) is a Windows-based program used
for configuring and customizing the Web browser-based GlobalViewer (GV)
application for each IPL, System 5 IP, MLC, or other IP Link-based device on a
network. Once an IPL 250 is configured, its GlobalViewer Web pages allow the user
to manage, monitor, and control the IPL and the devices connected to it.
Refer to the Global Configurator help file and the IPL 250 Setup Guide for specific
information on how to use the software and perform basic setup tasks.
N To work with GlobalViewer Web pages, you must use Microsoft Internet
Explorer version 6.0 or higher with ActiveX enabled.
N If the IPL has been configured with passwords, the GlobalViewer Web pages are
password protected. Although default embedded Web pages are accessible via the
GlobalViewer Web pages, nonadministrators (people with only user access) are
able to access only the Status default Web page and some GlobalViewer Control
pages.
Four screens for the IPL are available via Global Viewer: Control, Monitor,
Schedule, and Info ( ). Screens such
as Monitor and Schedule appear only for ports and controlled devices that have
been included in specific monitors or schedules you set up using GC. The Info
screen appears for the overall system, not for specific connected devices.
Read the Global Configurator Help file for details on each screen and how to use the
GlobalViewer pages.
