Download the Startup Page
Access the switcher using HTML pages as follows:
1. Start the Web browser program.
2. Click in the Address field of the browser and highlight any existing text.
3. Enter the Matrix IP address in the Address field of the browser.
NOTE: If 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.
NOTES:
• The Address field of the browser should display the address in the following
format: <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx>/<optional_file_name>.html.
• The HTML language reserves certain characters for specific functions (see
Special Characters on page 118).
5. Press the keyboard <Enter> key. The switcher checks to see if it is password-
protected.
If the switcher is not password-protected, it checks and downloads the HTML pages
(proceed to step 7).
If the switcher is password-protected, the switcher asks for your password (see
figure 56).

NOTE: A User name entry is not required.
6. Click in the Password field and type in the appropriate administrator or user password.
Click the OK button.
7. The switcher checks several possibilities, in the following order, and then responds
accordingly:
• If the address include a specific file name, such as
192.168.254.254/<file_name>.html, the switcher downloads that HTML page.
• If there is a file in the switcher memory that is named “index.html”, the switcher
downloads “index.html” as the default startup page.
• If neither of the above conditions is true, the switcher downloads the factory-
installed default startup page, “nortxe_index.html” (see figure 57 on the next
page), also known as the System Status page.
