Introduction

of HQView-3xx is mirrored into the web browser and all menu items can be accessed and controlled
through the keyboard or mouse of the PC.

Installing the Software
No extra software needs to be installed on a PC. The PC web browser is used as the graphical user
interface for all control items. To connect to the HQView-3xx the TCP/IP address of the unit has to be
entered into the address list box of the web browser in the following format http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. The
TCP/IP address assigned to HQView-3xx can be found in the System/Network Settings menu.

Calibre provides a DiscoveryTool.exe Windows application to identify Calibre boxes in the network.
Clicking on the link of the recognized box will open a browser and make a connection to the
corresponding box. The box identifier is made up of “PV6M” in the case of HQView-3xx followed by the
6 least significant digits of the MAC address. The MAC address of the box can be found in the
System/Network Settings menu.
