MOTU AVB Control Web App

CHAPTER
OVERVIEW
MOTU AVB Control is a web app that gives you
complete control over the Stage-B16. If you have
several MOTU AVB interfaces networked together,
such as the Stage-B16, 1248 and 8M, you can
control them all. If you are working with a large
network of many MOTU AVB interfaces, you can
access any device on the network.
IT'S NOT ON YOUR HARD DRIVE
The MOTU AVB Control web app is served from
the Stage-B16 hardware itself, therefore it is not an
application on your computer's hard drive. Instead,
access it by using the MOTU AVB Discovery app for
Mac, the MOTU AVB WebUI Setup for Windows or
through your web browser by typing your MOTU
device's IP Address into the address bar.
USE YOUR FAVORITE WEB BROWSER
The MOTU AVB Control web app runs in any
modern web browser on any device connected to
the Stage-B16, either directly or wirelessly through
a Wi-Fi network. You can use any device you wish:
a desktop computer, laptop, iPad, tablet, iPhone or
smart phone. If it can run a web browser, it can run
the web app. You can use any browser you prefer:
Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE 11 etc. The latest
versions are strongly recommended.
CONTROL FROM MULTIPLE DEVICES
You can run the web app on multiple host devices
simultaneously.
RUN THE INSTALLER, GET THE APP
Visit www.motu.com/avb to get the latest MOTU
AVB installer and run it on your computer to install
the MOTU AVB Discovery app (Mac) or MOTU
AVB WebUI Setup (Windows) and other software
elements. Visit the Apple App Store to download
the discovery app onto your iPad or iPhone.
MAKE HARDWARE AND NETWORK
CONNECTIONS
Connect your Stage-B16 to your computer or
laptop with a USB cable. Make sure your iPad,
iPhone, tablet or smartphone is connected to the
same Wi-Fi network as your computer or device.
You can use any network connection explained in
"Setup for web app control" on page 36.
LAUNCHING THE WEB APP

If you have a Mac, choose the Stage-B16 from the
■
MOTU AVB Discovery app menu (see below). On
Windows, launch the MOTU AVB WebUI Setup
shortcut found on the Windows desktop or in Start
