If Ethernet switch is also use for other service like PC network or Voice Over IP:
Set different VLAN groups to divide different network service.
For RJ45 ports or Fiber ports used for other services, set IGMP Blocked (HP switch) or Multicast

3. Change IP Mode to Static
IP Address: Please assign a IP with correct format. (Ensure unites’ IP are at C or D class range).
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0 or base on proper ethernet network planning.
Default Gateway: Only if need, please refer gateway setting on Router.
4. Click Apply Button to save new setting, but unit need to reboot to get new setting effect.
5. Click System Tab → Utilities → Click Reboot button, reboot.

Aavara AV Master Web Interface
Aavara AV Master Web interface, built in in every Aavara HDMI Over IP unit, is a one web page setup
and control entire HDMI Over IP AV Matrix and Video Wall. It will only need to configure and operate Aavara
AV Master Web Interface on One unit then that unit will become master control unit of entire system, usually
recommend to use first sender, then all rest of units just take order.
To Connect Aavara AV Master Web Interface via PC/Tablet connect to same ethernet Switch/Wifi AP
with following IP setting:
IP address: any no conflict IP within same C or D class IP range with all senders and receivers.
Netmask: 255.255.0.0 or value base network configuration that allow all unites can see each other.
Factory default IP range is 169.254.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.0.0
Web browser: recommend Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari
Launch Web browser with following URL (domain name of sender at channel 0, default sender setting):
http://aavara- ateway0000.local
User Lo in
Every time launch web browser and Aavara AV Master Web page will ask user to login.
System Default Login name and Password (Can be revised or delete later on at User Management Tab)
with Administrator authorization.
Login name: adm
Password: adm
After Login, on right top corner will show Login User info and Logout button.
8
User with Administrator authorization will see both AV Matrix/VideoWall/Control Operation and All
Setup functions.
User with Operator authorization will see AV Matrix/VideoWall Operation functions only.
Only User with Administrator Authorization allow to access unit configuration cfg.html
Access other units’ web page other than master control unit, will redirect web page/URL to master
control unit’s web page.
Once User Session expired, AV Master Web Interface will ask user to login again.
9
- Setup within AV Master Web Interface
Click on Setup Tab on first time installation and configuration change later on, wait few seconds, AV
Master will scan and list all Senders and Receivers. Please configure all parameters for Senders and
Receivers, detail at table below, according installation & operation requirement. All settings will storage in this
Sender or Receiver only and later on operation shall connect to this Sender/Receiver's web page only.
If any USB or RS232 setting changed, the unit will need to reboot to get new setting effect.
For Device Control Command code setup, need to do by CSV file uploading way as next section show.

Device IR Command Learnin
Aavara AV Master Web control can learn Device IR command code, so it can copy n paste into Device
Control CSV file.
Step 1: Ensure IR Receiver cable had plug into AV Master Master Control unit’s IR Receiver jack. And, have
Device IR remote on hand ready for IR code learning.
Step 2: Please point Device IR remote to IR receiver, and press remote button which want to learn IR code
from.
Then, IR HEX code (PRONTO format) will show below in red.
Step 3: Copy n Paste IR HEX code (in red) to the cell of Device Control CSV file for further upload and
operation.
