Configure Network Information

Visit the website http://192.168.1.100/, 192.168.1.100 is a device IP address. The default network information is on the nameplate attached to the device.

Fiber Optic Switcher

Note: Visit configuration website will increase the switch time when the AGS14 is working at switch mode.

The Ethernet port just supports static IP mode, please avoid conflict with other network devices in the same subnet. If the device has been set to the wrong IP and can`t be accessed any more，push the Restore Button for 6 seconds to restore the default settings. When push down the Restore Button, the LED will twinkle until restore succeed.

Data Frame Formats About TCP/UART

A complete frame contains 2 bytes: fixed start byte and command byte. Start byte Command byte

0xF0(Fixed) 1-byte data

Once the client transmits the command, it needs to wait for the device to reply.

Function Transmit frame (hexadecimal) Reply frame (hexadecimal)

Say hello, use for test connection, the device will do nothing 0xF000 0xF000

Switch to channel 1 0xF001 0xF001

Switch to channel 2 0xF002 0xF002

Switch to channel 3 0xF003 0xF003

Switch to channel 4 0xF004 0xF004
