Using Hilo Remote From A Wifi Or Wlan Connected Computer; Requirements; Initial Setup - Lynx hilo User Manual

5.5

Using Hilo Remote from a WiFi or WLAN connected computer.

In some cases it is useful to run the Hilo Remote from a computer other than the one that Hilo is streaming audio to and from. This
could be for control over a dedicated media server, a situation where level changes are made while monitoring from the "sweet spot"
using an iPad, or cases where audio is streamed from one computer to another and it is desirable to control the parameters of both
from a single computer.

Requirements

The Hilo Remote Control software can be installed onto an OS X Mac with 10.6 or above, a Windows PC with Windows 7 or above,
or on an iPad with iOS 7 or above. The Hilo Remote can be downloaded from the Lynx website: Support > Downloads > Hilo. For
iOS, the Hilo Remote is available from the iPad AppStore (keyword : Lynx Hilo). In addition to Hilo Remote, the Lynx Redirector
will also be required. This utility can be downloaded from lynxstudio.com > Support > Downloads > Hilo. In addition to the software,
three basic hardware elements are required for Remote Control to work:
1.) Host Computer (If a Windows computer, driver version 1.55 or above needs to be installed and functional)
2.) Target Computer or Tablet
3.) Router (Wi-Fi/WLAN)
The Host computer must be running LynxRedirector and be directly connected to the Hilo either via USB or Thunderbolt.
Additionally, the Host Computer must be connected to your network router either via Ethernet cabling or over Wi-Fi (direct Ethernet
cabling will provide the best performance). The Target Computer/Tablet running Hilo Remote must also connect to your network
router either via Ethernet cabling or over Wi‐Fi.

Initial Setup

First, make sure your Hilo is connected directly to the Host Computer and the driver is loaded (Hilo-USB does not need a driver to be
loaded on OS X).
Next, make sure the Host Computer is connected to your network and has been assigned an IP address (this should happen
automatically).
Launch LynxRedirector on your Host computer.
You need only make a change to LynxRedirector if you have multiple Hilo's connected to the Host Computer.
Next, make sure your Target Computer/Tablet is connected to the same network as the Host Computer and has been assigned an IP
address (again, this should happen automatically).
If your Hilo is connected via USB, you will see a screen similar to this.
If your Hilo is connected via Thunderbolt, you will see a screen similar to this.
