Blaise Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I just had a new DS2 installed and have seen posts about the web interface. How do I access that? Can you share the IP address? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thepritch88 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Not sure if the DS2 has a default IP address but you could hook it up to a POE switch and do an IP scan to find out what IP its on. I can't remember the default login details but should be easily found on google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you share the IP address? Your dealer could have possibly changed the ip to a different static address (or dhcp reservation). Unless you know what you're doing, I would discourage playing with the settings as it's easy to break the DS2 integration after it's been set up.

Clearly I don't know what I'm doing I think I can do everything I need to do via composer. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I am not suggesting to log in and mess things up. But as a homeowner, if you want to know what IP address your devices are at you can download Fing for free. With the free app, as long as you are on the same wifi network as your system you can see in real time what devices are offline or online and their current IP address. if buy a fing box, you can do this remotely and also get notices when devices go up or down, etc. This will not log you into the UI as you likely need some passwords (do not have the DS2 so I do not know) but just sharing how you can get an IP address on your local network.

Shivam Paw Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Once you’ve found the IP the username is admin and I’m fairly sure the password is in the composer documentation tab so just check that. If u still cant find the password then here’s a puzzle to solve it. totalcontrol4! replace o with 0 just don’t mess with anything ur not sure about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhyPhy Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I can no longer log on to the DS2 web interface. Did the password change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control4Savant Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Have you reset it? Have you tried the default 2N (non C4) login? As of 2020 newer firmware has initial password requirements.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhyPhy Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I figured it out. The new C4 driver generates a random password that is shown in Composer. Details are in this post: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
