Web-based Control
• TYPE
The MUSE pre-amp processor contain a built in web
server. Direct control and status monitoring tools are
located on the web page for the product. This feature is a
great tool for diagnosis / setup of the product. This
interface will also auto optimize the user interface for
mobile devices. All that is required is a device with a web
browser, a standard router, and an MUSE pre-amp
processor. All operating and many setup controls for the
product are available on the pre-amp processor Web
Page.
To use the web interface, visit the website for the pre-amp
processor.
FORMAT: http://IP ADDRESS
EXAMPLE: http://192.168.1.245
Note that the default IP address for the MUSE is
192.168.1.245 however, use of DHCP will likely override
this address.
Ethernet Control
The MUSE pre-amp processor is designed to receive
external control system commands via the Ethernet port.
All commands use UDP Protocol (User Datagram
Protocol) format for sending commands from a control
device to the MUSE over a standard IP network. For real-
time status, a status table is available to be read via XML
format from the MUSE web server. This enables 2-way
rd
3 -party IP driver control.
Connections
The Ethernet port on the pre-amp processor should be
connected to the router or network switch. The external
control system should also be connected to the same
router via wired or wireless connection.
UDP Format / Initial Settings:
All UDP control devices will require both the IP Address of
the MUSE and the MUSE UDP Control Port. The MUSE IP
Address can vary depending on the installation.

UDP PORT
UDP Control Setup:
In order to setup UDP control from an external system, you
have to know the MUSE IP Address and the MUSE UDP
Port number (see table above). By default, the MUSE
UDP Receive Port State is ON or open to receive
commands.

Once these steps are complete, you can issue the UDP
commands via an external control system.
Static IP Address Setup
It is highly recommended to set a Static IP when setting up
an external control system or disable DHCP on the
network. Doing this will prevent the DHCP function inside
the network router from changing the MUSE IP address to
an address unknown by the control system.
UDP Command Structure:
The UDP data to be sent consists of HEX codes that will
be transmitted to the designated IP address and Port. The
format is shown below.
BASIC MUSE UDP SEND COMMAND FORMAT:
06 F9 19 FF S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S6
Where:
06 F9 19 FF = UDP command prefix (for MUSE 6-
character command code)
S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S6 = the serial command code in HEX
00 00 = command end marker (for MUSE)
UDP Command Example
SEND COMMAND: PWRPTG
06 F9 19 FF 50 57 52 50 54 47
This UDP command will toggle MUSE power on and off.
For testing purposes, you can use a UDP Test program to
verify UDP operation of the pre-amp processor once set
up. Some examples of free UDP test tools available
