Ethernet Connection

Ethernet Link

The rear panel Ethernet connector on the ISM 824 can be connected to
an Ethernet LAN or WAN. This connection makes SIS control of the
switcher possible using a computer connected to the same LAN.
Ethernet connection
The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover
cable and must be properly terminated for your application (figure A-1).

Default address

To access the ISM 824 via the LAN port, you need the switcher's IP address. If the
address has been changed to an address comprised of words and characters, the
actual numeric IP address can be determined using the Ping utility. If the address
has not been changed, the factory-specified default is 192.168.254.254.
Ping can also be used to test the Ethernet link to the ISM 824.

Ping to determine Extron IP address

The Microsoft Ping utility is available at the DOS prompt. Ping tests the Ethernet
interface between the computer and the ISM 824. Ping can also be used to
determine the actual numeric IP address from an alias and to determine the Web
address.
