Overview
The user interface of the WM IPR screen depends on the Start mode. Once configured with an IP address and powered on, the IPR opens in one of three Start modes. In Local-Fullscreenmode you can view only one channel and it uses the entire screen on the attached monitor; there are no user controls whatsoever. In Portal Server mode, all features and options of the IPR are controlled through the VBrick Portal Server. In Local mode, the IPR displays a user interface page that is stored on the IPR web server; the available streams on this page are configured on the IWS General Configuration page. You can use the IR Remote Control that comes with the IPR to navigate in Portal Server mode and in Local mode. (You can also plug a USB keyboard and mouse into the back of the IPR to perform navigation tasks.)
Local-Fullscreen Mode
If the IPR Start Mode is set to Local-Fullscreenmode (Figure 9), there will be a (live or stored) video image on the TV monitor at system startup. This image is controlled by the system administrator. It covers the entire screen and there are no user controls shown or available. The IR Remote Control is non-functional in this mode except for Volume and Mute. The video image is programmed to decode a specific stream. This stream is preset on the General Configuration page; the audio output volume is preset on the Decoder Configuration page.
