IN1804 Seamless Scaling Switchers • Installation 14
When connected to an Ethernet LAN, the IN1804 can be accessed from a computer
running a standard Internet browser. Use a patch or crossover cable to connect the
IN1804 to a computer, control device, router, or switch. The default IP address of the
switcher is 192.168.254.254, the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, and the default
gateway address is 0.0.0.0.
The LAN connector contains two LEDs (see the illustration at right):
• Act LED — This amber LED blinks to indicate LAN signal activity.
• Link LED — This green LED lights steadily to indicate a LAN
connection.
Figure 9 shows how to wire the LAN connector.

Reset button — This recessed button initiates levels (modes) of reset on the IN1804.
To initiate the different reset levels, use a pointed object such as an Extron Tweeker
(or other small Philips screwdriver) or a stylus to press and hold the button while the
switcher is running or while it is being powered up (see Reset Modes beginning on
page 42).
K
Reset LED — This green LED remains lit while the IN1804 has power. While the Reset
button (see
J
, above) is being pressed and held, this LED blinks every 3 seconds
to indicate the level of reset initiated if the button is released at that point (see Reset
Modes for more information).
L
Remote RS-232 connector — Connect a host device to this 3-pole captive screw
connector for RS-232 serial control. The baud rate is 9600.
