Accessing the NetLinx Master via an IP Address
Refer to your particular NetLinx Master’s instruction manual for detailed information on how to
download the latest firmware (build 300 or higher) from www.amx.com. This firmware build
enables SSL security and disables the ability to alter the Master security properties via a TELNET
session.
Once the Master’s IP Address has been set through NetLinx Studio:
1. Launch your web browser.
2. Enter the IP Address of the target NetLinx Master (with either http or https) into your web
browser’s Address field.
3. Click OK to accept the AMX SSL certificate (if SSL is enabled).
4. Enter a valid username and password into the fields within the Login dialog.
5. Press the Enter key on your keyboard to begin the communication process between the target
Master and your PC.
6. The first window displayed (FIG. 67) is accessed by clicking on the Manage connections link.
Once activated, this page displays links to G4 panels running the latest G4 Web Control
feature.
Verify your NetLinx Master’s IP Address and System Number have been properly
entered into the Master Connection section of the System Connection page.
