Switching, Configuration, and Status

System Configuration Interface Overview

The System Configuration interface (an onboard web configurator) contains a comprehensive set of web pages that can be used
during setup to manage your system's network, security, and system needs, as well as configure its inputs and outputs while
executing switches.
This chapter covers the interface's Enova DGX Switcher Configuration pages: Switching, Configuration, and Status. These three
pages are accessed from the Switcher drop-down list on the main menu bar of the System Configuration interface. The remaining
menu options are covered in the Web Console & Programming Guide at www.amx.com (located on the product pages for Enova DGX
100 Series Switchers).
The examples provided assume an Enova DGX 100 Series Switcher is connected to a LAN via its LAN 100/1000 port (see page 51)
and that the System Configuration interface has been accessed (see page 55).

System Configuration interface Tips:
For optimal display of interface features use an HTML5 browser (such as Google Chrome).

"Best practices" require using the most current version of browser software available.

To access the interface after initial setup, simply type the integrated Master's IP address* in the address bar of the browser

and press the Enter key.
Some devices run on a secured file-system. As such, file-system operations (e.g., Load and Save operations) may not be

supported by the device's default capabilities and may require downloading a file manager application.
When selecting Inputs and Outputs for switches – you may select an input followed by multiple outputs, but only one input

is selectable if you select an output first.
Inputs and Outputs can only have one name each, regardless of whether the name is set via the Video tab or the Audio tab

in the Configuration page (or via NetLinx SEND_COMMANDs VIDIN_NAME, VIDOUT_NAME, AUDIN_NAME, AUDOUT_NAME).
Information represented in the System Configuration interface is provided through both synchronous and asynchronous

communication. The interface should be refreshed after making changes to the system, if the interface session has been
open but unchanged for over an hour, or at any point information does not appear to be correct.
* The IP address is available through the Control Panel's LCD menu: Function/Setup Options/Master Info/IP Address.
Username and Password
The Username and Password fields at the top right of the interface allow Users and Administrators to access system security
functions. The default Username for the interface is "administrator" and the default Password is "password." After initial setup,
defaults should be changed to ensure system security.
Menu Bar
The main menu bar at the top of the System Configuration interface contains the following menu items:
Home – access the Web Controls options page

Network – access the IPv4 Setup, IPv6 Setup, and Date/Time pages

Security – access the General, Users, Groups, and LDAP pages

System – access the Info and Devices pages

Modules – access the Device Options, Bindings, User-Defined Devices, and Active Devices pages

Switcher – access the (Enova DGX Switcher Configuration) Switching, Configuration, and Status pages

Home Page
From the Home page, Web Control options become available (e.g., RMS Config, Virtual Keypad, Modero Touch Panel, and Classic
Master Website).
From the main menu's Switcher drop-down list, you can access the Switching, Configuration, and Status pages whose functionality
is described in the remainder of this chapter, which applies to all current Enova DGX 100 Series Switchers (all contain integrated
NetLinx NX Masters).
