MOTU AVB Control Web App

OVERVIEW

MOTU AVB Control

is a web app that gives you

complete control over the UltraLite AVB. If you

have several MOTU AVB interfaces networked

together, such as the UltraLite AVB, 1248 and 8M,

you can control them all. If you are working with a

large network of many MOTU AVB interfaces, you

can access any device on the network.

IT’S NOT ON YOUR HARD DRIVE

The MOTU AVB Control web app is served from

the UltraLite AVB hardware itself, therefore it is not

an application on your computer’s hard drive.

Instead, access it by using the

MOTU AVB

Discovery

app for Mac, the

MOTU AVB WebUI

Setup

for Windows or through your web browser

by typing your MOTU device’s IP Address into the

address bar.

USE YOUR FAVORITE WEB BROWSER

The MOTU AVB Control web app runs in any

modern web browser on any device connected to

the UltraLite AVB, either directly or wirelessly

through a Wi-Fi network. You can use any device

you wish: a desktop computer, laptop, iPad, tablet,

iPhone or smart phone. If it can run a web browser,

it can run the web app. You can use any browser

you prefer: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE 11 etc. The

latest versions are strongly recommended.

CONTROL FROM MULTIPLE DEVICES

You can run the web app on multiple host devices

simultaneously.

RUN THE INSTALLER, GET THE APP

Visit www.motu.com/avb to get the latest MOTU

AVB installer and run it on your computer to install

the

MOTU AVB Discovery

app (Mac) or

MOTU

AVB WebUI Setup

(Windows) and other software

elements. Visit the Apple App Store to download

the discovery app onto your iPad or iPhone.

MAKE HARDWARE AND NETWORK

CONNECTIONS

Connect your UltraLite AVB to your computer or

laptop with a USB cable. Make sure your iPad,

iPhone, tablet or smartphone is connected to the

same Wi-Fi network as your computer or device.

You can use any network connection explained in

“Setup for web app control” on page 36.

LAUNCHING THE WEB APP

To launch the web app, do any of the following:

■

If you have a Mac, choose the UltraLite AVB

from the MOTU AVB Discovery app menu (see

below). On Windows, launch the

MOTU AVB

WebUI Setup

shortcut found on the Windows

desktop or in

Start menu> All Programs> MOTU

■

From your iPad or iPhone, launch the MOTU

AVB Discovery app.

■

In your favorite web browser, type this URL:

localhost:1280.

(This URL requires a USB

connection to the UltraLite AVB.)

■

If the UltraLite AVB Ethernet port is connected

to your Ethernet or Wi-Fi network, type the unit’s

IP address (see below) into your browser.

You should now see the MOTU AVB Control web

app in your browser, as shown on page 12. If not

visit Appendix A, “Troubleshooting” page (73).

Obtaining the UltraLite AVB’s IP address

On the front panel of the interface, push the ID

knob once. The LCD now displays the unit’s IP

address, which should look something like this:

“IP Address: 192.168.1.209”.
