FAQ

1. Why I cannot login the Web Management Page?

1) Check the IP address of your computer. The default IP address of the IP
Control Box is 192.168.11.243, so the IP address of the computer
should be 192.168.11. X.

2) Check the Web browser. We recommend you use Firefox, Opera, Safari
Internet Explorer 11 or Chrome. If the problem persists, try to upgrade
you browser to the latest version.

2. How do I set the addressing type of the Transmitters and Receivers?

A: The IP address of Transmitters and Receivers are obtained automatically,

the default method is Auto IP.

3. When I send matrix commands, how do I specify TX and RX? IP address,

Alias or Hostname?

A: You can specify them by Alias or Hostname. They are unique.

4. What is the format of the command? Simple ASCII terminated with a

<CR>?

A: Yes, exactly.

5. It looks like to create a video wall I would use the command “add vw-name”.

Once a video wall is created, how do I turn it on and off? I should be able to
create multiple video wall configurations and then recall a configuration? Is
this possible? I would like to use the PC software to create a video wall
configuration and then save the configuration as a video wall name. I would
then send a telnet command to recall a video wall name. This command
could be “set vw-name”.

A: Except “add vw-name tx”，other add commands of VW are effective

instantly. (The screen would change based on the commands).
Create and store multiple video-wall configuration, or recall the

distributed by

22

configuration effective are decided by your Third-party software. Any
Third-party party software could recall a specific configuration, based
on this API protocol and repeat corresponding add commands.

6. How to add a 2*2 video wall?

A: Before you use video wall, you can assign an alias name to it.

just like this:
if you have 4 tx and 4 rx,
config set device alias EX131-AAAAAAAAAAAA tx1
config set device alias EX131-BBBBBBBBBBBBB tx2
config set device alias EX131-CCCCCCCCCCCCC tx3
config set device alias EX131-DDDDDDDDDDD tx4
config set device alias EX141-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE rx1
config set device alias EX141-FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF rx2
config set device alias EX141-GGGGGGGGGGGG rx3
config set device alias EX141-HHHHHHHHHHH rx4

The first solution:

1)”vw add vw1 2 2 tx1” this command means add a video wall
with two rows and two columns and assign a name vw1. The blue
one means row, the green one means column.

2)”vw add vw1 rx1 1 1 rx2 1 2 rx3 2 1 rx4 2 2” this command
means add some devices to the video wall vw1, and assign the
position to it.

The second solution:
vw add vw1 layout 2 2 tx1 rx1 rx2 rx3 rx4 this command
is the most simple to add a video wall. Just need one line of
command.

Both solutions are effective.

23

7. How to use command "vw bezelgap vw-name ow oh vw vh"?

A: This command is incorrect. The correct one is "vw bezelgap vw-name vw

ow vh oh".
If your TV vw is 90.01 cm, ow is 91.01 cm, vh is 40.52 cm and oh is 42.52
cm. First you need to change the unit to 0.1mm,
means 90.01cm=9001(0.1mm), you just need to send "vw bezelgap
vwname 9001 9101 4052 4252".

8. How to use the command "vw pictureparam vw-name h-shift v-shift h-scale

v-scale tearing-delay"?
A: This command is used for adjusting screen display. The range of

Tearing-delay is 10000 ~ 16000 and unit is us.
