The SmartMatriX Ultra can be controlled and operated either via the Front Panel, from your computer via the
webRCS, or via one or our Event Controllers. (Control of the SmartMatriX Ultra can also be integrated into
automaon and control systems, contact your local technical support for more details.)
To be connected, you need to use a LAN connecon. Use a crossover
cable if you connect your computer directly to the unit, or use straight
cables if you are connecng through a switch or hub.
Before switching ON the unit, please plug a LAN cable on the rear panel into the Ethernet port. Then switch
ON the unit.
By default, the network sengs on the SmartMatriX Ultra are
Default IP Address: 192.168.2.140
Default Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

To be able to connect to this address, your computer will need to
be congured to use a unique IP address on the same network. If
this setup will be part of a larger network with other devices, please
check with your network administrator before plugging these
devices into the network to avoid any IP address conicts.
For example, you could assign the following stac IP address to your
computer:
