Equipment Setup

„

Use the following steps to set up equipment:

1.  Connect the input and output sources on the MatrixPRO.  

2.  Connect the MatrixPRO remote port to an available serial (RS-232) port on the 

laptop/PC with the MatrixPRO Control application installed.  

3.  Turn on the MatrixPRO and wait for a complete system boot up.  

4.  After the MatrixPRO has successfully booted up, run the MatrixPRO Control 

application by clicking Start > Programs > Folsom Research > MPControl.

„

Use the following steps to control the MatrixPRO using a computer on the same LAN:

1.  Pre-configure MatrixPRO with a static IP address using the RS-232 ipconfig 

command, program the MatrixPRO using the GUI over RS-232, or use the front 
panel menu system.  

2.  On the remote computer, launch the GUI.  

3.  Press NO when the dialog asks if you would like to connect serially.  

4.  Click the Setup Tab.  

5.  Enter the IP address of the MatrixPRO in the IP address box.   

6.  Click the Ethernet radio button under the RS-232 heading.  The MatrixPRO now 

will be under the control of the GUI.

Please note the following important points:

Only one Ethernet socket is available — so only one remote GUI can be 
accommodated at one time.  However, MatrixPRO can still be controlled via RS-
232, RS-485 or the Front Panel while being controlled over Ethernet.  

If the unit is controlled by other sources, press Update Status as necessary to 
find the current status of the MatrixPRO.  

If an operation such as a route is not completed by using a Take command via the 
Front Panel or by serial command, the GUI can fall into an unknown state and 
operation may become unreliable.  

To prevent any mis-operation, it is recommended that the Front Panel Lockout be 
activated on the GUI.
