6. Web GUI User Guide

The presentation switch can be controlled by Web GUI. The operation method is shown as below:

Step 1: Get the current IP Address.

The default IP address is a static address 192.168.1.100 Port: 8000 by default. You can get the current switch IP address via RS-232 command control. Send the ASCII command "r ip addr" through a Serial Command tool (Putty or Hercules), then you'll get the current IP address (The IP address is variable, depending on what the specific status it is in).

For the details of RS-232 control, please refer to "Section 9. RS-232 Control Command".

Step 2: Connect the LAN port of the presentation switch to a PC with an UTP cable (as shown in the below figure) and set the IP address of the PC to be in the same network segment with the presentation switch.
