REMOTE CONTROL
The DNS 8D incorporates its remote control software in the form of an internal web
page, and you may connect to this using a suitable browser. To access it, connect the
DNS 8D’s control port to your Ethernet network. It will attempt to obtain an IP address
from the network using DHCP and then register its serial number as its hostname. Once
this is complete, enter the unit’s address...
http://dns-8-nnnnn.yourdomain.com
... (where dns-8-nnnnn is the unit’s serial number) into your browser window’s address
bar. Enter the Username and Password for the unit (the defaults are both “DNS8D”)
and you will obtain two panels corresponding to the Summary and Detail screens
displayed on the DNS 8D itself. These panels can be hidden and shown using the
buttons in the upper left-hand corner of the screen.
The Presets button (top right) provides access to the presets, and the Summary panel
displays Group buttons that allow you to group and ungroup channels. At the bottom of
the screen you will nd global DNS On/Off and Learn buttons.
You can edit the channel names by clicking in the appropriate elds and typing new
names. These names will be echoed on the unit itself and in Dante Controller. You can
save and recall sets of channel names using the device preset facilities within Dante
Controller.
Compatibility
The DNS 8D is compatible with all major browsers including Chrome, Edge, Explorer (v9
and higher), Firefox and Safari. It may be accessed by multiple browsers simultaneously,
and changes made on one browser will be displayed on any others connected to the
unit. However, the company does not guarantee error-free use in this manner, and multi-
client use is not supported by CEDAR Audio Ltd.
