Controlling your Videohub

There are two ways to control your Videohub:

1 Connect your Videohub to your computer via Ethernet and use the intuitive Videohub

Control software to control your Videohub. For more details refer to the ‘connecting

Videohub to a network’ section in this manual.

2 Control your Videohub using a hardware control panel, either built in or external

knob for making fast routing changes directly from your Videohub router. For more
