ISM 482 Integrated Scaling Matrix Switcher • HTML Operation 58
NOTES:
• The program will not allow you to create a user password unless you have already
created an administrator password.
• If a password has been inadvertently changed to an unknown value, you can still
connect to the switcher via the RS-232 link, which is not password protected.
When connected via the RS-232 link, using either SIS commands (see the
Programming Guide section on page 31) or under program control (see the
Switcher Software section on page 51), you can look up and, if desired, change
a password.
ISM IP Settings Fields
The ISM IP Settings fields provide a location for observing and editing settings unique to the
Ethernet interface. After editing any of the settings on this page, click the Submit button.
ISM IP Address field
The ISM IP Address field contains the IP address of the connected ISM. This value is
encoded in the flash memory on the controller circuit board.
Valid IP addresses consist of four 1-, 2-, or 3-digit numeric subfields separated by dots
(periods). Each field can be numbered from 000 through 255. Leading zeroes, up to 3
digits total per field, are optional. Values of 256 and above are invalid.
The default address is 192.168.254.254, but if this conflicts with other equipment at your
installation, you can change the IP address to any valid value.
ISM Name field
The ISM Name field contains the name of the switcher. This is helpful in identifying the
switcher in multiple-unit networks. This name field can be changed to any valid name, up to
12 alphanumeric characters.
Hardware Address field
The hardware address (also known as the MAC address) is hardcoded on the controller
board and cannot be changed.
