Software operation via Ethernet

When an ISS is connected to an Ethernet WAN or LAN, any number of users can operate it, locally or remotely, using the ISS/ISM Control Program. See “Ethernet connection” in chapter 2, “Installation”, for installation details

Connection to the switcher via the Ethernet is password protected. There are two levels of password protection: administrator and user. Administrators have full access to all ISS switching capabilities and editing functions. Users can select video and/or audio for output, select inputs and outputs, select test patterns, set RGB and audio mutes, select a blue screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. If the same passwords or no password is required for logging on, all personnel log on with administrator privileges. Fields and functions that exceed user privileges are grayed out in the ISS/ISM Control Program when the operator is logged on as a user.

Ethernet protocol settings

The IP Settings/Options screen (figure 5-8 on page 5-6) provides a location for observing and, if you are connected via the RS-232 link or if logged on via the Ethernet port as an administrator, editing settings unique to the Ethernet interface. None of the fields on this screen can be edited while you are logged on as a user. See “System Configuration Page” in chapter 6, “Ethernet Operation”, for details on the contents of these fields. See appendix A, “Ethernet Connection”, for other basic information about Internet protocol.

Editing variables on the IP Settings/Options screen while connected via the Ethernet port can immediately disconnect the user from the ISS. Extron recommends editing the settings on this screen using the RS-232 link and protecting the Ethernet access to this screen by assigning an administrator’s password to qualified and knowledgeable personnel only.
