Operation

Once all VN-Matrix 200 devices have been correctly set up, any further system configuration and operation is via the VN-Matrix 200 network interface. Built-in HTML pages provide access to various system parameters. The VN-Matrix 200 device that you designated as the controller in the “Before you Connect to a Network” procedure functions as the network server. The HTML pages can be viewed by any web browser, such as Mozilla® Firefox®, ver. 1.3 or newer (preferred), or Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, ver. 6.0 or newer.

NOTE: Whichever browser you use, it must be configured to accept cookies and be Javascript-enabled.

Start up and Login

1.Connect a computer through the network to the VN-Matrix 200 device that is configured as the controller.

2.Enter the IP address of the VN-Matrix 200 unit that is configured as the controller into the address bar of the web browser.

3.Press the keyboard <Enter> key. The login screen appears.

4.Enter the username and password.

NOTE: The VN-Matrix 200 devices have two user accounts (usernames):

• admin — which allows full read/write access to all setup parameters,

• public — which allows read-only access to setup parameters.

As shipped from the factory, the password for both accounts is the same as the user name (the password is “admin” for the admin user account and “public” for the public account).

• The username and password are case sensitive.

• For the intial setup, use the admin username.

5.Click the Login button or press the keyboard <Enter> key. The VN-Matrix 200 web page opens to the Device List tab, shown below. This page lists all VN-Matrix devices that are connected to the system controller.
