Before you can access Omnia XII from a web browser, initial network configuration must be completed using the front panel touch screen. This process establishes basic IP connectivity to your Omnia XII.

To configure Omnia XII network settings (from the front panel):

  1. Press the Omnia XII logo in the upper left corner of the screen to reveal the menu list.

  2. Press the Network menu to display network settings.

  3. Select the interface (NET 2 or NET 3) that you used that you will use for management access, .

  4. Press the Mode drop-down menu, and then select either Auto (DHCP) or Manual (Static).
    For initial setup, use Manual (Static) if a fixed IP address is required for remote access or facility addressing schemes.

  5. Configure the IP Address, Net Mask, and Gateway for the selected interface.

    Note: Omnia XII factory defaults are typically:

    • Net 1: Manual (Static), 192.168.2.100 / 255.255.255.0 (no gateway)

    • Net 2: Auto (DHCP)

    • Net 3: Auto (DHCP)

    3. Press OK to confirm (or Cancel to discard changes).

    4. Press Save to apply settings.

  6. (Optional) Repeat the network configuration steps for additional interfaces as needed.

    We recommend configuring the network for IP-based audio transport settings later through the web UI as it is an easier method. See Setting up Omnia XII System Software.

    1. Press the Host Name tab.

    2. Enter the desired hostname using the on-screen keyboard.

    3. Press OK to confirm.

    5. Press Save to apply settings.

    To delete a DNS server:

    1. Press the trash icon for the DNS server.

    2. Press OK to confirm (or Cancel to discard changes).

    3. Press Save to apply settings.

  1. Reboot the unit to apply settings:

    1. In the touch screen, press the Admin menu.

    2. Press the System tab.

    3. Press Reboot.

Launching the Omnia XII Web UI and Logging In

Once you have configured the Omnia XII network connection, you can launch the Omnia XII web UI on a computer and log in to access remote controls.

For initial remote control, an internet connection is not required. You can launch the Omnia XII web UI when your computer or laptop are plugged into the same local network switcher, router, or studio environment as the Omnia XII.

If you are launching the web UI with no internet connection, you will create a local account to access the web UI using that account. If internet access is available, you will instead use a TelosID+ account to access the web UI.
