Switching control via the network port
The network port allows switching to be controlled by commands issued from an
external system such as a Crestron™ or AMX™ controller.
Connecting to a network for remote control
1 Use a standard patch cable to link the network port ( ) of the CCS-PRO4 unit to a
network switch.

Issuing remote switching commands via the network port
The Application Programming Interface (API) for the CCS-PRO4 requires the controlling
system to send an HTTP Get request to the following location:
• <ipadress>/cgi-bin/channel
The following parameters are available:
• km=<channel> Switches the keyboard and mouse to the dened channel.
• spk=<channel> Switches the speakers to the dened channel.
• usb1=<channel> Switches USB port 1 to the dened channel.
• usb2=<channel> Switches USB port 2 to the dened channel.
An example string is: 192.168.1.22/cgi-bin/channel?km=3&spk=4&usb1=2&usb2=1
The above example would switch the keyboard and mouse to channel 3, the speakers to
channel 4, USB port 1 to channel 2 and USB port 2 to channel 1.
Note: If security is enabled then the client must be authenticated before you are able to access
the CCS-PRO4.
2 Ensure that the CCS-PRO4 network port is correctly congured to a subnet that is
accessible from the sending device. See Network settings for details.
