INTRODUCTION
The NET-IP-PRO is an RS-232 control module that allows most SmartAVI switching matrixes to be controlled remotely via HTTP or TELNET. Manage the switching functions of your ma­trix with ease from anywhere in the world. With NET-IP-PRO you can save present input/output configurations for easy access. TELNET access provides transparent command control of your matrix, perfect for use with automated third-party control software.
Note: Telnet access requires telnet or similar. First find the IP address us-
ing the “detect” application, or if you have configured the IP address manu-
ally, telnet the IP address port 23.

CONNECTING TO THE NET-IP-PRO
After connecting the NET-IP-PRO to the network and plugging in the power supply, you will need to find the IP address in order to connect to it. This can be done with either of the following two dis-
covery tools. The first, called “detect” will open up a small console
application that will display the IP address of the NET-IP-PRO. Af­ter obtaining the IP address connect to the device with the web application of your choice by typing that IP address in the web browser or connect through telnet on port 23. An alternative op-
tion is to use “detect_gui,” this program will find the IP address of
the NET-IP-PRO and then open up a web browser to the NET-IP­PRO web interface. The steps to do this are shown below.
1. Power off all devices.
2.
Using a CAT5 cable, connect the NET-IP-PRO to your local network.
3. If you have a smart-AVI device use your RS-232 male to male cable to connect the NET-IP-PRO to your smart-AVI device.
4. Plug the power into the NET-IP-PRO.
5. Use one of the discovery tools (mentioned above) to connect to the NET-IP-PRO web interface or telnet application.
