HTML Operation

The switcher can be controlled and operated through its LAN port, connected via a LAN or WAN, using a web browser such as Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. The browser’s display of the switcher’s status or operation has the appearance of web pages. This chapter describes the factory-installed HTML pages, which are always available and cannot be erased or overwritten.

NIf your Ethernet connection to the seamless switcher is unstable, try turning off the proxy server in your Web browser. In Microsoft’s Internet Explore, click

Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings, uncheck the “Use a proxy server...” box, and then click Ok.

Downloading the Startup Page

Access the switcher using HTML pages as follows:

1.	Start the Web browser program.
2.	Click in the browser’s Address field.
3.	Enter the unit’s IP address in the browser’s Address field.

NIf the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory- specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.

4. If you want the browser to display a page other than the default page (such as a custom page that you have uploaded), enter a slash (/) and the file name to open.

NThe browser’s Address field should display the address in the following format: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/{optional_file_name.html}

NThe following characters are invalid in file names: {space} + ~ , @ = ‘ [ ] { } < > ’ “ ; : \ and ?.

5. Press the keyboard Enter key. The switcher checks to see if it is password protected.

If the switcher is not password protected, proceed to step 7.

If the switcher is password protected, the switcher downloads the Enter Network Password page (figure 6-1).
