X75SD/X75HD Multiple Path Converters and Frame Synchronizers Quick Start Guide
Configuring for HTTP Control (via Web Browser)
Once the networking parameters of the X75 have been configured appropriately, and it
is connected to the Ethernet network, the built-in Web server allows a standard Web
browser to control the X75 unit. Before controlling your unit in this way, note the
following system and browser requirements:
• The X75 supports Web browsers that are compatible with HTML 4.0 (and later).
• Although most standard Web browsers can be used with the X75 for HTTP control,
the following browsers have been tested and approved by Leitch:
Microsoft® Internet Explorer 6.0, Netscape® Navigator™ 7.2, and Mozilla®
Firefox™ 1.0.
Procedure
To select a unit for control, follow these steps:
1. Ensure all required connections and network settings have been made locally on
your X75 unit(s).
2. Open a supported Web browser, and then type the IP address of the unit you wish to
control into the Address, Location, or URL field of your Web browser (the name
of the field depends on the Web browser you are using). For example, type the
following to control an X75 unit with this IP address:
http://192.168.100.250
The Web browser then displays the Home page of the X75 Control interface (Web
server).
See Chapter 9: “Controlling the X75HD via Web Server Software” in your
X75SD/X75HD Multiple Path Converters and Frame Synchronizers Installation
and Operation Manual for more information.
Note
Web browser control is only
available for X75 units, and not
for X75-RCP panels.
