Action (DM‑NVX‑38X Models)

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, this section applies to the following models:

  • DM‑NVX‑384

  • DM‑NVX‑384C

The Action drop-down menu is displayed at the top right side of the web interface and provides quick access to these common device functions:

Save Changes

Select Save Changes to save any changes made to the configuration settings.

Revert

Select Revert to revert the device back to the last saved configuration.

Reboot

Certain changes to the settings may require a reboot to take effect. To reboot the device:

  1. Select Reboot in the Action menu. The Reboot confirmation message box appears.

  2. Select Yes, Reboot Now to reboot the device. The Reboot status message box appears. Wait for the device reboot to complete before attempting to reconnect to the web interface. Alternatively, select No to cancel the reboot operation.

Restore

The DM NVX device can be restored to factory default settings from the Action menu.

NOTE: The Restore procedure will wipe all settings from the device, including network settings. If a static IP address is set, restoring the device to factory default settings will clear this address and DHCP will be enabled instead.

To restore the device to factory defaults:

  1. Select Restore in the Action menu. The Restore confirmation message box appears.

  2. Select Yes to restore the device to factory default settings. Select No to cancel the restore operation. When Yes is selected, the Restore status message box appears. Wait for the device restore to complete before attempting to reconnect to the web interface.

    NOTE: Once the device is restored, it may have a new IP address. If reconnecting to the original address does not work, use the Device Discovery Tool in Crestron Toolbox software or an IP scanner application to find the device's new IP address.

If the web interface is not accessible, the device can also be restored to factory default settings via a hardware-based procedure (refer to DM‑NVX‑384 and DM‑NVX‑385 Installation). Card-based DM NVX devices can also be restored from the front panel menu of the DMF‑CI‑8.

Update Firmware

To update the firmware of the device:

  1. Select Update Firmware in the Action menu.

  2. In the Update Firmware window that appears, select + Browse.

  3. Locate and select the desired firmware file, then select Open. The selected firmware file name is displayed in the Update Firmware window.

  4. Select Load, then wait for the progress bar to complete and for OK to become selectable.

  5. Select OK. The firmware update is now complete, and the web interface will return to the main log-in page.

Download Logs

Select Download Logs in the Action menu to download the device message logs for diagnostic purposes.

The log file is downloaded to the Downloads folder of the PC.

Manage Certificates

Select Manage Certificates in the Action menu to open the Manage Certificates window. Use this window to add or remove certificates used in 802.1x authentication and other protected network functions.

The following certificate tabs are available in the Manage Certificates window:

  • Root: The Root certificate is used by the DM NVX device to validate the network's authentication server. The device has a variety of Root certificates, self‑signed by trusted CAs (Certificate Authorities) preloaded into the device. Root certificates must be self‑signed.

  • Intermediate: The Intermediate store holds non self-signed certificates that are used to validate the authentication server. These certificates will be provided by the network administrator if the network does not use self-signed Root certificates.

  • Machine: The Machine certificate is an encrypted PFX file that is used by the authentication server to validate the identity of the DM NVX device. The machine certificate will be provided by the network administrator, along with the certificate password. For 802.1x, only one machine certificate can reside on the device.

  • Web Server: The Web Server certificate is a digital file that contains information about the identity of the web server.

  • Client: A Client certificate is a file that allows the DM NVX device to identify itself to another server on the network. There are no Client certificates loaded by default to a DM NVX device, as they can only be required by local network devices.

Add Certificates

To add a certificate:

  1. Select the corresponding certificate tab.

  2. Select Add [Type] Certificate.

  3. Select + Browse.

  4. Locate and select the file, then select Open.

    NOTE: If the selected certificate is a machine certificate, enter the password provided by the network administrator.

  5. Select OK. This will add the certificate to the list in the Manage Certificates window, displaying the file name and expiration date. The certificate is now available for selection and can be loaded to the device.

Delete Certificates

To delete a certificate:

  1. Select the corresponding certificate tab.

  2. Select the trashcan icon in the Actions column and the row of the certificate to be deleted.

  3. Select Yes when prompted to delete the certificate or No to cancel the deletion.

Manage EDIDs

Select Manage EDIDs in the Action menu to open the Manage EDIDs window. Use this window to add, remove, or browse which EDIDs are available for the AV inputs and outputs of the DM NVX device.

The default tab that will open in this window is the Default EDIDs tab. This tab is read only, and provides a list of all default EDIDs available on the DM NVX device as part of the firmware. Use the Search... text entry field to filter the list of EDIDs by name. Default EDIDs cannot be removed from the device.

The second tab available in this window is the User EDIDs tab. By default, the table will populate with No records found.

To add a User EDID file:

  1. Select + Add EDID at the top right of the table. The File Upload screen will appear.

  2. Select + Browse. Locate the desired .cedid file, then select Upload to upload it to the DM NVX device.

    Browse for and select a .cedid file

    Upload the selected file

Refer to the Outputs heading under Settings (DM‑NVX‑38X Models) for information on setting a background image.

To delete an image, select its entry in the table then select X Remove.
