- Download  on www.analogway.com
to use the Web RCS.
The NeXtage 16 - 4K uses standard ethernet LAN
networking. To connect the Web RCS to your
new NeXtage 16 - 4K, you rst need to connect a
computer to the NeXtage 16 - 4K using the Ethernet
cable.
Open   and enter the IP address of
the NeXtage 16 - 4K displaying on the front panel
screen.
The connecon should start.
Oen, computers are set to DHCP client (automac
IP detecon) mode. You may need to change the
IP address conguraon on your computer before
you can connect. These sengs are found in the
properes for your LAN network adaptor, and vary
by operang system.
The default IP address on the NeXtage 16 - 4K is
192.168.2.140 with a netmask of 255.255.255.0
Therefore, you can assign your computer a stac
IP address of 192.168.2.100 and a netmask of
255.255.255.0 and should be able to connect.
If the connecon is not starng, please see:
• Be sure the computer IP address is on the same
network and subnet as the NeXtage 16 - 4K.
• Be sure that two devices don’t have the same IP
address (prevent IP conicts)
• Check your network cable. You will need a crossover
ethernet cable if you are connecng directly from
the NeXtage 16 - 4K to the computer. If a hub or
switch is involved, use straight ethernet cables.
• For more informaon, please see the user manual
or contact your local technical support.
Once you have successfully connected, the ash
app will automacally download and launch in AW
. When the two icons in the boom right
corner of the screen turn green, the Web RCS is
ready to use. If you are having trouble syncronizing,
try clearing the cache and refreshing the page
(ctrl+F5 in most browsers):
- NXT1604-4K: will turn green when connected
-  will turn green when the Web RCS has
nished syncronizing.

for all.
