6.0 Web GUI
6.1 Preparation
The controllers Web GUI gives you complete control of encoders and decoders within your LAN/Project.
Step 1: Enter controllers URL or IP address in to your Web Browser address bar.
URL: http://controller.local
Or
IP Address: 192.168.0.225
Subnet: 255.255.0.0
Enter the username (admin) and password (1234).
For first time setup you need to create a project as shown below.
Welcome to the AV over IP setup guide. It leads you to create the
system easily by following steps.
You can click the “close” button to load an existing project in web
page directly.

To setup AV over IP system, you need to set the IP management mode of the video LAN domain. The IP
management modes are:
●Automatically managed by the controller box.
This is the mode as factory default. The IP address assignments to controller box video LAN, encoders
and decoders will be managed by the controller box firmware automatically. In this mode there is no need
to add router in the system on video LAN domain.
○DHCP Mode
This is the mode for system in which there is a DHCP router on video LAN domain to assign IP addresses
for controller box video LAN, Encoders and Decoders. The router acts as a DHCP server . It’s recom-
mended to set the net mask of router to 255.255.0.0.
○Static IP Mode by Manual setting
This is the mode for system in case IP address resources can be assigned manually for controller box vid-
eo LAN, Encoders and Decoders.
Reminders as below.
a. The network settings of controller box video LAN, Encoders and Decoders must be on the same subnet.
b. It’s recommended to set net mask of controller box video LAN, Encoders and Decoders to 255.255.0.0.

User ManualSC08.CTL100DScion Tech
Notes:
1. Currently only mode (1) is available, modes 2 & 3 will be available soon.
2. Default setting for LAN Control Port is DHCP.
3. If there is no DHCP server in your LAN, you can access the controller using (IP Address
192.168.0.225 and subnet 255.255.0.0).

Click the “Next” button and wait for the controller to complete a search
Now you can select to automatically add all discovered Encoders and Decoders to the project or just them in the
web page where you can add them manually.
