Web Browser Control
To control the FS1-X from a web browser on a network attached computer, enter the
FS1-X IP address as a URL in the browser. For example, if the FS1-X IP address were
“90.0.6.31”, you would then type into the web browser: http://90.0.6.31. This topic is
explained in greater detail in Chapter 5: Browser Remote Control.
NOTE: The webUI (browser GUI) will keep up with most changes initiated at the front panel.
However, the webUI may not reconnect (displays “Disconnected”) when network changes are
initiated at the FS1-X front panel. To manually reconnect, type the new IP address into the
browser, or click the browser Refresh button. Sometimes the browser caches the old FS1-X
address. If you can't get the browser to connect, try clearing the Browser history to clear the
cache, and then enter the new address again.
Software Update Installation
Although the FS1-X comes from the factory pre-installed with software, it may not be as
up-to-date as software posted on our AJA website. This topic describes the steps
required to update the software in your AJA FS1-X.
