Troubleshooting; Configuring A Pc Network Connection - AMX IS-SPX-1000 Operation/Reference Manual

Troubleshooting

If you are unable to connect to your IS-SPX-1000, check the following items:
1.
Double check that you have correctly entered the correct IP address in your web browser.
2.
Check the LED on your device. If the LED is blinking from orange to red once per second: the IP address
of your device has already been assigned on the network. Check your network configuration and make
sure that it is not taken by another device. If the LED is blinking fast (several times per second) from
green to red, the device is in recovery mode. In this case, unplug the device, power it up again, and wait
about 1 minute. If the IS-SPX-1000 remains in recovery mode, contact AMX Technical Support.
3.
If the device has already been configured and does not have a default IP address, it may be returned to its
factory default. Note that all the content stored on the device will be deleted. For more information, refer
to the Resetting the IS-SPX-1000 to Factory Default Settings section on page 6.
4.
Double-check the connectivity of cables, connectors, and switches in your setup.
5.
Check the network configuration of your PC.
6.
Verify that the web browser does not have a proxy configured.
