FS2 Installation and Operation Manual — Remote FS2 Control Via a Web

Controlling
Multiple FS2s

From any screen, you can see at-a-glance all of the FS2 devices present on the same
local LAN as well as the current FS2 you are controlling. Clicking on any of the listed
systems will bring up the Status screen of that FS2.

Note: the FS2 you control may be running a different software version, so screens
may look different. It’s a good idea to have all your FS2 devices running the most
current software and the same version. Also, if the Default Gateway (parameter 2.4) is
not configured properly, other FS2s will not be visible. If the display shows No FS2’s
found
, check the gateway setting.

Resetting Values
To Factory
Settings

FS2 web browser screens feature many user controls that can be reset to factory
values by simply “right-clicking” on the parameter label. When you right-click, the
browser displays a Reset to Factory message that will cause the parameter to be reset.

Note: This only works with computers that allow right-clicking. Some computers
may not permit this operation.

You can perform a global reset to factory values of all System, Video 1/2, Audio 1/2,
and Output parameters (the same set of parameters acted on by a Preset Recall). To
do this, go to the Presets screen and click on the Recall button in the Factory Preset row.
User preferences, network settings, and existing Presets are not affected by recalling
the Factory Preset.

Slider Operation

Some screens contain slider controls for setting values. To set a value, you can click on
a slider to select it and then use the mouse to drag the slider to the position you
desire. For fine tuning, while the slider is selected (highlighted by a blue border), use
the keyboard left and right arrow keys to change the value one unit at a time. After
setting a slider's position, click on the page's background area (blue highlight turns
off) to ensure the change is confirmed and saved.

Video Format
Display

When displaying video format status, the following convention differentiates
between SMPTE video formats (broadcast) and VESA formats (non-broadcast formats
originating from a computer DVI signal). The SMPTE formats are shown as height (in
lines), scan-format (progressive or interlaced), and frame-rate, such as 1080i59, for
example. the VESA formats are shown as a size only, with an x in the middle, such as
640x480, for example.
