Overview

The Web Interface is a web-based control, monitoring, and diagnostic tool for all Symetrix DSP units. It is accessible with any device that has a web browser. It displays the I/O and AEC meters, diagnostics for troubleshooting, and ARC-WEB Menus.

Access

To access the Web Interface:

1. Right Click any DSP in Site View.

2. Select Unit Properties...

3. Select Configure Web Access...

4. Select Launch Web Page...

Or just type the IP address of the DSP into any device with a browser.

Security

You can enable password protection to access the Web Interface by:

1. Right Click any DSP in Site View.

2. Select Unit Properties...

3. Select Configure Web Access...

4. Check the "Enable Security" check box and type and confirm your password. You can also choose to automatically log off of the web interface when it's inactive for a specified amount of time here:

5. After you have configured the security settings, click OK and then click OK to close the properties, then push to the unit.

6. Launch the Web Interface.

  1. Enter the password and select "Login".

Home

The Web Interface opens up to the Home page by default. This page displays all configured ARC-WEBs. Click on an ARC-WEB instance to control it.

You can also navigate to the Meters and Diagnostics pages from the Menu button in the top right corner of the screen:

View the various help dialogs found in the Web Interface.

Meters

Displays the input and output meters for the unit and also display the Aux, Reference, ERl, ERLE, and TER meters for a Radius AEC or the 4 Channel AEC Input card.

Dante Meters

Displays the Dante input and output meters for the unit. If no Dante Card is installed, the Dante meters will show no activity.

Diagnostics

Displays unit diagnostics for troubleshooting. This page is updated automatically every 8 seconds.

Dante

Network

Network Name: The name of the unit

IP: The unit's IP Address

Mask: The unit's Subnet Mask

Gateway: The unit's Default Gateway

DHCP: If DHCP is enabled, the LED will be lit green

Leased: Date and time of receiving lease

Server: IP Address of local server

Power Supply

Main DC: 24V

Aux DC In: 24V when the auxiliary power supply is plugged in (applies to Edge only)

P.S. Values: All other power supply rails will display their current voltage

Status: The red LED will be lit if the voltage rails swing beyond the tolerance window. For most voltages, this is+/- 5%.

Thermal

Fan Speed: RPM of the internal fan. The value will increase as the internal temperature rises

Temperature: Temperature of the motherboard

Max Temp: Maximum recorded temperature of the motherboard

Clear: Clears the reported temperature

Min Temp: Minimum recorded temperature of the motherboard

Clear: Clears the reported temperature

Avg Temp: Average recorded temperature of the motherboard

Status: The Failed LED will be lit red if the fan has stopped (0 RPM) or the internal temperature is greater than 158°F/70°C

Control

RS-485: This LED will be lit green when data is sent on the RS-485 port

RS-232: This LED will be lit green when data is sent on the RS-232 port

ControlNet: This LED will be lit green when data is sent on the ControlNet port

Mute All: This LED will be lit green when all unit outputs are muted

Dante

If no Dante Card is installed, the Dante section will display "\" or "N/A" for the following items, otherwise they will show the information as described below.

Dante Name: The Dante network name for the unit

Prim. Dante IP: The IP address for the primary Dante port

Sec. Dante IP: The IP address for the secondary Dante port. This will be 0.0.0.0 if the unit is not in redundant mode

Prim. Dante Mask: The Subnet Mask for the primary Dante port

Sec. Dante Mask: The Subnet Mask for the secondary Dante port. This will be 0.0.0.0 if the unit is not in redundant mode

Prim. Dante MAC: The MAC address for the primary Dante port

Sec. Dante MAC: The MAC address for the secondary Dante port. This will be 00:00:00:00:00:00 if the unit is not in redundant mode

Dante Mode: If Dante is configured in Redundant mode, the LED will be lit green. Otherwise Dante is configured in Switched mode

Dante Clock Drift: The clock drift consists of 2 values. The first indicates the amount that the network sample clock differs from the internal clock of a device. This may be in the thousands. The second value indicates how much the first value is changing. It should generally be less than 100. If the unit is the clock master, these values aren’t relevant and it will show "MASTER".

Dante Kernel Ver: The version of the Dante firmware provided by Audinate

Dante User Ver: The version of the Dante firmware provided by Symetrix

Dante Latency: The network latency set for Dante traffic

Dante Transmit Channels: Number of Dante transmit channels configured for the unit

Dante Receive Channels: Number of Dante receive channels configured for the unit

Dante Link Speed: Indicates the speed the Dante card is connected to the network

Dante Sync Status: Indicates if the Synchronization status is locked

Dante Mute Status: Indicates the state of the Dante mute due to synchronization errors or other issues. This is not affected by the Composer’s mute features.

Dante Master Clock: Indicates if the unit is set as the master clock for the Dante network
