8. Make TV visible in CMND
This chapter describes the TV settings to connect to a CMND server over IP or RF. For the CMND
settings please refer to the CMND manual on http://www.cmnd.io. You at least need CMND 7.
8.1 Connect the TV via IP
8.1.1
Change the TV settings
The TV can connect to the CMND server via IP by setting the correct Server URL. This URL can be set
on the TV by going to the Professional Settings and navigating to [Networks] [Control TV over IP]
[Server URL].
By default, the Server URL will be "http://SmartInstall.org:8080/webservices.jsp". To connect the TV
to CMND this URL must be changed by replacing "SmartInstall.org" with the IP address of the CMND
server. For example when the IP address of the CMND server is "192.168.1.50", the resulting Server
URL will be "http://192.168.1.50:8080/webservices.jsp".
Once this Server URL is correct and below recommended settings are used, the TV will appear in CMND.
Recommended Professional Settings:
[Upgrade and Clone][Auto Upgrade Settings][Auto Upgrade and Clone] = [On]
[Advanced][Professional Mode] = [On] (never turn this [OFF])
[Advanced][Power][Standby Mode] = [Fast]
[Networks] [Control TV Over IP]
o [WebServices] [TVDiscoveryService] = [On]
o [WebServices] [ProfessionalSettingsService] = [On]
o [WebServices] [IPUpgradeService] = [On]
o [WebServices] [PMSService] = [On]
o [WebServices] [SystemStatusService] = [On]
o [WebListeningService] [PowerService] = [On]
o [WebListeningService] [TVDiscoveryService] = [On]
o [WebListeningService] [IPUpgradeService] = [On]
o [WebListeningService] [PMSService] = [On]
8.1.2
Use a DNS server
It is not mandatory to change the Server URL as mentioned above. As the default Server URL is
"http://SmartInstall.org:8080/webservices.jsp"
"http://192.168.1.50:8080/webservices.jsp" by resolving the "SmartInstall.org" domain to the CMND
IP address via a local DNS server, when one is available.
8.1.3
URL fallback mechanism
The URL fallback mechanism is a new mechanism to find the CMND server, which is triggered when
the TV is unable to receive a valid CMND response when it is using the URL of [Server URL]. When
triggered, the TV will try to find the CMND server by using the first 10 and last 10 IP addresses of the
TV range.
For example when the TV has the following IP configuration:
IPv4 address: 192.168.103.115
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.103.1
The resulting fallback URLs will be:
