Using the NetLinx Master to Control the TPI

Before you begin:
Verify your NetLinx Master has the latest firmware (*.KIT) file loaded.

Set the Master's IP Address via NetLinx Studio (version 2.8 or higher).

1. Launch your web browser and enter the IP address of the target NetLinx Master into the Address field.
2. Press the Enter key on your keyboard to begin the communication process between the Master and your PC.
Initially, the Master Security option is disabled, therefore a Username and Password are not required for access or

configuration.
Both HTTP and HTTPS Ports are enabled by default.

3. If the Master has been configured for secured communication, click OK to accept the AMX SSL certificate (if SSL is enabled)
and then enter a valid Username and Password into the fields in the Login dialog.
4. Click OK to enter the information and access the Master's WebConsole (Manage WebControl Connections page).
5. Click on Manage connections to access the Manage WebControl Connections page (FIG. 85). This page displays links to G4
Touch Panels running the G4 Web Control feature (which was previously setup and activated on each Touch Panel).


control the unit's pages from your computer.
7. Click on the G4 Touch Panel link associated with the target panel (see FIG. 85). This invokes a secondary browser window.
