PRELIMINARY

HTML Configuration and Control

The MGP 464 can be controlled and configured using HTML Web pages accessed over a network or from a local PC connected to the MGP 464’s LAN port. The MGP 464 has factory-installed HTML Web pages that allow you to select and configure inputs, adjust picture controls, configure windows, save and recall presets, and perform other processor functions. Access these HTML pages using a Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.

NAdministrators have access to all of the Web pages and are able to make changes to settings. Users can access the pages on the System Status, Control, and Background tabs only.

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