• WebGUI Overview Each unit contains 2 independent AVoIP receivers, and each of those is controlled by their own WebGUI interface which may be accessed by opening a standard web browser on a PC and typing in the IP address of the unit you wish to connect to.
6.5.1 System Tab The System tab contains four windows that provide access to firmware version information, a firmware update interface, utilities for rebooting and resetting the unit, Telnet command entry, and a variety of statistics and information about the operational state of the unit. 1) Version Information: This window displays detailed information about this receiver’s current firmware version.

3) Utilities Window: The Utilities window provides control over some system-level functions. ■ Factory Default: Users can reset this receiver back to the factory defaults by clicking this button. ■ Reboot: The unit may be rebooted (without resetting settings) by pressing this button.
Page 15
4) Statistics Window: The Statistics window shows all available information about the operational status of the unit, including current Host ID Name, SN, Ethernet information, MAC address, broadcast reception mode, link status and link mode.
6.5.2 Network Tab The Network tab provides control over this receiver’s IP configuration. Changes made to the network settings will require a reboot of the unit. After clicking on “Apply” please follow the reboot instructions in the WebGUI. Note: If the IP address is changed then the IP address required for WebGUI and Telnet access will also change accordingly.
Note: The default network setting for this unit is “Auto IP”. If the unit is set to “DHCP” but no DHCP server can be found, the IP mode will temporarily switch to “Auto IP” until the unit is rebooted. ■ Find Your Device: Selecting “Show Me” will cause the unit to immediately begin flashing the LEDs on the front of the unit to make it easy to find.
