and DataViewer. It can also be configured and controlled using a standard web browser from the LAN port (via telnet port 23).
Because the LAN port must be connected for streaming output, Extron recommends using it for configuration, control, and
firmware upgrades.

indicates the status of the USB port and blinks during recording. The storage device can be any standard external hard drive
or USB flash drive formatted with a compatible file system.
