Upload HTML files

NThe HTML Files List window is for inserting your own HTML pages. This is not the window to replace the firmware that controls all switcher operation. See “Update firmware” in this chapter to replace the firmware.

You can create customized HTML pages for the switcher to display. The HTML Files List window (figure 5-32) provides a way to view the contents of the switcher’s file system and upload custom HTML pages to the switcher.

Figure 5-32 — HTML Files List window

NThe files listed in figure 5-32 are shown for example only and may not be present on your switcher.

Upload HTML pages as follows:

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

1.	Connect the PC to the matrix switcher via one of the switcher’s RS-232 ports
	or Ethernet port.
2.	Start the Matrix Switchers Control Program and connect to the MPX switcher.
	See “Starting the program” in this chapter, steps 1 through 4, starting on page 5-41.
3.	Click Tools > HTML File Manager.
4.	Click the Pick File(s) to Load to Server button. An open file window
	appears.
5.	Navigate to the folder where you saved the HTML file(s). Select the file(s).

NTo select multiple files, hold the Ctrl key while you select the desired files.

NIf you want one of the HTML files that you created to be the default start-up page, name the file “index.html”. The MPX switcher automatically looks for that file name when you first connect to it using an Internet browser.

	few minutes.
