If you get a response indicating that the ping was unsuccessful:

a.Make sure your unit is using the appropriate subnet mask (check with your system administrator).

b.Make sure your PC does not have a software firewall program which might block the IP address of the unit.

3.If contact is established with the unit, but the unit web pages cannot be accessed by your web browser, verify (in the Options or Preferences menu) that your web browser is configured for direct network connection and not set up to use a proxy server.

If you are still experiencing problems, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline.
