Make sure the equipment being tested is powered off and then test your command. This command will only power some devices on, they will not act as a toggle. Publish changes and test your buttons, macros and events that reference the WOL command. NOTE Make sure that UDP broadcast is enabled within your network.Īdd the Wake On Lan device to the newly created gateway Within the below screenshot you see a prompt asking for which device the command is being executed, this only appears when multiple aliases have been created.Īdd a new network gateway with an IP address of 255.255.255.255. Once aliases have been created, add the Power On command to your button, macro and/or event. Since the gateway setup is the same for each WOL controlled device, you can have multiple aliases for each piece of equipment. Once the device has been imported create an alias for the device being controlled The image below is a screengrab of Lanscan.Īfter identifying the MAC address of your equipment: Use a network scanner such as Fing on handheld devices or Lanscan if using a MAC laptop. You will need to identify the MAC address of the hardware being controlled. The process below will explain how to setup Kramer control to use WOL for those pieces of hardware. WOL uses the MAC address of the hardware being controlled in a hexadecimal string that is sent via UDP broadcast. Devices such as Kramer VIA, Sony Blu-ray and Sony TV’s require WOL as the only way to Power the unit on while controlling the equipment thru the Network (not using IR or RS232). WOL or Wake on Lan is supported by some devices as a method to Power on the unit via the lan connection to the unit.
