Controller Settings

Open Settings to configure controller-level options. These settings affect the MiniJoy, not an individual camera.

Network

Setting	Behavior
IP Configuration Type	Select DHCP or Static
IP Address	Supplied automatically for DHCP; editable for Static
Subnet Mask	Supplied automatically for DHCP; editable for Static
Gateway	Supplied automatically for DHCP; editable for Static
DNS1	Supplied automatically for DHCP; editable for Static

warning

Changing network settings can disconnect the browser session. Record the new IP address before saving a static configuration.

NDI

Enter the NDI group used by the MiniJoy, then select Save. The group name must exactly match the group used by the NDI sources the MiniJoy needs to discover. The screenshot uses public as an example; use the group required by your environment.

Firmware

The Firmware page displays the installed firmware version and update status. To install an update, choose or drop an approved .fw file, then select Upload to device.

warning

Use only firmware intended for the MiniJoy. Do not disconnect power or the network while an update is in progress.

System

Account / Change Password

Enter the current password, the new password, and the new password again, then select Change password.

Import and Export Configuration

• Select Export to download a backup of the current controller configuration.
• Choose or drop a compatible MiniJoy configuration file in the upload area to import it.

Export the current configuration before importing another file. An import can replace controller settings; after it finishes, verify the network, camera, knob, and system settings required by your workflow.

warning

Import only a configuration intended for a compatible MiniJoy. Do not disconnect power while the configuration is being applied.

Controller Status Sidebar

The Web UI sidebar displays:

• Serial Number
• Device Model
• MAC Address
• Firmware Version
• Uptime

The sidebar also provides Reboot, Logout, PTZOptics links, and Ask a Question!.

Logout ends the current Web UI session. Reboot restarts the controller and interrupts controller operation until startup completes.
