Connecting with the Web RCS
The SmartMatriX Ultra uses standard ethernet
LAN networking. To connect the Web RCS to your
new SmartMatriX Ultra, you first need to connect
a computer to the SmartMatriX Ultra using the
Ethernet cable. Then on your computer open an
internet browser which supports Flash® player.
Into this internet browser, please enter the IP
address of the SmartMatriX Ultra displaying on the
front panel screen.
The connection should start.
Often, computers are set to DHCP client (automatic
IP detection) mode. You may need to change the
IP address configuration on your computer before
you can connect. These settings are found in the
properties for your LAN network adaptor, and vary
by operating system.
The default IP address on the SmartMatriX Ultra
is 192.168.2.140 with a netmask of 255.255.255.0
Therefore, you can assign your computer a static
IP address of 192.168.2.100 and a netmask of
255.255.255.0 and should be able to connect.
If the connection is not starting, please see:
• Be sure the computer IP address is on the same
network and subnet as the SmartMatriX Ultra.
• Be sure that no two devices have the same IP
address (prevent IP conflicts)
• Check your network cable. You will need a crossover
ethernet cable if you are connecting directly from
the SmartMatriX Ultra to the computer. If a hub
or switch is involved, use straight ethernet cables.
• For more information, please see the user manual
or contact Analog Way Technical Support.
Once you have successfully connected, the flash
app will automatically download and launch in your
browser. When the two icons in the bottom right
corner of the screen turn green, the Web RCS is
ready to use. If you are having trouble syncronizing,
try clearing the cache and refreshing the page
(ctrl+F5 in most browsers):
- SMX12x4: will turn green when connected
- Synch oK: will turn green when the Web RCS has
finished syncronizing.
