Using Wireless
Devices to Control
Ki Pro
Once an access point on the LAN is set up and Ki Pro is configured and enabled to
communicate with wireless devices, making the connection is easy. Like using a web
browser on a Mac or PC. Wireless devices such as iPhones that have browsers can also be
used to control Ki Pro. As in using a computer’s browser, the same optimized web server
inside Ki Pro allows you to use an iPhones browser to load Ki Pro web pages for it. There
are many wireless devices, some with non-standard or incompatible browsers, so all
examples shown in this chapter are based on using an iPhone or iPod Touch wireless
device. These are AJA supported configurations.
To access the Ki Pro, simply enter its URL in the iPhone’s web browser. For most devices
with standard browser displays (such as a laptop), the URL will be the IP address defined
in Ki Pro’s Network parameter menus (50.2—please note also that 50.1 through 50.4 must
all be configured correctly to access Ki Pro on your network). If Ki Pro is using DHCP, the IP
address can be found by pressing the Status button on the Ki Pro front panel repeatedly
until the Network Status display is shown or by going to parameter 50.2 and reading it
there.
If 50.1 is set to Default Addr, the factory default static IP address is: 10.65.74.65. So, if 50.1
is set to Default Addr, you would type the following in the web browser: http://10.65.74.65
to see Ki Pro’s web interface Main Status screen.
iPhone Ki Pro
Screens
When using a small handheld device like iPhone or iPod Touch browser, you will want to
also use the IP address as a URL, but also specifying a specially formatted webpage
formatted for the small display:
On an iPhone or iPod Touch, use this URL:
http://<IP address for your Ki Pro>/iphone.html
For example, if your Ki Pro is 10.0.7.110, then on an iPhone, you’d enter:
http://10.0.7.110/iphone.html
Once entered, the URL takes you to the Status screen with these KiPro control menus
