Accessing the Web Interface

The following steps to access the Web Interface and configure the unit with a valid IP address apply equally for the Makito XH encoder and decoder.

  1. Open a Web browser of your choice, such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer.

  2. Type the IP address for the encoder into the browser's address bar and press Enter.
    The Makito X comes pre-configured with the following default settings:

    IP AddressSubnet MaskGateway
    10.5.1.2255.255.0.010.5.0.1

    The above network settings may be different if your Makito X was pre-configured to interoperate with a Furnace system.

    Note

    To access the Web interface, your computer must be in the same IP Address range (subnet). You may have to temporarily change your computer’s IP Address to be in the same subnet as the encoder. Only then will you be able to access the encoder and change its IP address, and then afterwards change your computer's IP address back. For details, see Configuring Network Settings in the User's Guide.

  3. The first time you try to access the Web interface from a new browser, the browser may not recognize the Makito X’s https connection, and you may get a Security Certificate Warning (such as “This Connection is Untrusted.” or “The site’s security certificate is not trusted.”). You must accept the Makito X’s self-signed certificate in order to access the Web interface.

    Note

    The Makito X identity certificate and trusted root certificates may be managed from the Web interface (Certificates page) or using the CLI certificate command. See Managing Certificates in the User's Guide.

  4. Sign in to the Makito X Web interface, using the default administrative username and password.

    Please refer to the Important Notice (postcard included in the box or available from the Download Center on the Haivision Support Portal) for the default sign-in credentials.

    Important

    Makito X Series devices ship from the factory with only the admin account enabled. For security reasons, the two default user accounts (user and operator) are locked at the factory as well as after a factory reset. An administrator must unlock them and change the passwords to use them for the first time.

    Tip

    For security purposes, be sure to change the default passwords! See Changing Your Password in the User's Guide.

    The Web interface opens to the Outputs List View.



Note

While the Web interface is most commonly used to control the Makito XH, a Command Line Interface (CLI) is accessible via Telnet or SSH. For more information, please refer to CLI Command Reference (in the Makito X User’s Guide).


The decoder Web interface opens to the Streams List View.
