1.0 Introduction
1.1 General
The UI-IP8-DP is a programmable 8-button IP keypad capable of sending user programmed
TCP/Telnet commands to other IP enabled equipment on the same network.
It provides one Relay contact output that can be opened or closed based on the user
programming.
Commands are triggered by pressing keypad buttons, by accessing the embedded webpage
or by the user programming of day/time schedules.
You can program and recall up to 16 individual macros to send TCP/Telnet messages or
commands to many IP enabled and IoT systems such as AV distribution, factory automation,
security, keypad access.
Each button has two (2) color LEDs where the on/off state, color and brightness are
programmable.
The UI-IP8-DP includes a power supply or power can come from the compatible LAN network
using PoE (Power over Ethernet).
The UI-IP8-DP includes integrated battery-backed clock/calendar allowing the user to send
commands based on specific day/time schedules. For example, each evening the UI-IP8-DP
powers off and each morning powers on the devices it controls on the network.
1.2 Features
Single gang decora wall plate with 8 programmable buttons

webpage GUI
Adjustable LED brightness and color for each button
Up to 16 macros for controlling devices
Up to 128 commands for use across all macros (up to 16 per macro)

3.2 Installation Example: Controlling Devices with RS-232
The UI-IP8-DP does not have any RS-232 ports, so if the device you want to control does not
have IP connection but it has RS-232 control port, you can still use the keypad to trigger an
additional device (Model CNT-IP-2 sold separately) to send the desired RS-232 Serial
commands.
Use UI-IP8-DP with add-on CNT-IP-2 for control of RS-232 Devices
In the above example, the control webpage shown on the tablet belongs to CNT-IP-2.
You can create a control page with buttons and actions. Then you can control the RS-232
devices by clicking on them.
The buttons on UI-IP8-DP are programmed to send TCP/Telnet commands to CNT-IP-2 to
simulate button presses.

Rear Panel Connections
DC 5V: Connect to the supplied 5V DC power supply if no PoE power is available from the
network switch / router.
Control: Connect to a compatible LAN network switch or router using a CAT5e/6 cable.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is supported; this enables the unit to be powered directly from the
48V network switch / router without the need for the 5V DC power supply to be connected.
Relay Out: Connect to a device that supports DC 0~30V/5A relay trigger.
4.0 Configuration and Control via Web GUI
4.1 Install the Hall Research Device Finder (HRDF) Software Tool
The default STATIC IP address as shipped from the factory (or after factory default reset) is
192.168.1.50.
If multiple keypads connected to your network, or you are unsure of the IP addresses
assigned to each keypad; free HRDF Windows® software is available for download on the
product webpage. The user can scan the compatible network and find all the attached UI-IP8-
DP keypads. Note that HRDF software may discover other Hall Research devices on the
network if present.
NOTE There is a mini-USB connector accessed from the front by removing the
Decora cover. This port is only for updating the firmware.

The HRDF software can change the STATIC IP address or set the system for DHCP
addressing.
Finding the UI-IP8-DP on the LAN
Download the HRDF software from Hall Research website on a PC
Installation is not necessary, click on the executable file to run it. The PC may ask
the user to grant permission for the application to access the connected network.
Click the “Find Devices on Network” button. The software will list all of the UI-IP8-
DP devices found. Other Hall Research devices may also appear if connected to the
same network as the UI-IP8-DP.
Hall Research Device Finder (HRDF)
Double click on any device to view or modify its parameters.
Click the “Save” and then “Reboot” buttons after making changes.
Allow up to 60 seconds for the keypad to fully bootup after rebooting.
For example, you can assign a new Static IP address or set it to DHCP if you want
the compatible LAN network to assign the address.
A hyperlink to the attached UI-IP8-DP is available to launch the webGUI in a
compatible browser.

4.2 Login to WebGUI
Open a web browser with the device’s IP address into the browser’s address bar.
The login screen will appear and prompts the user for a user name and password.
After correctly logging into the UI-IP8-DP, the webpage will have a series of tabs described
below to view and control the systems functions.
4.3 Macro Settings Tab
The Macro Settings tab allows the user to edit the macro sequences assigned to each of the
eight physical buttons.
Click on macros 1~6 to see various LED light command examples preprogrammed by factory
default.
NOTE
A
s shipped from factory (and
after a factory reset), six (6)
buttons have preprogrammed
macros as examples. These
macros can be deleted or
changed, as needed.
NOTE Be patient as the webpage could take several seconds to load
NOTE
The default username is admin
The default password is admin

Macro 1: Sequentially light, all buttons RED @ 100% on the keypad.
Macro 2: Sequentially light, all buttons Blue @ 100% on the keypad.
Macro 3: Turn off all the red LEDs (set brightness to 0%).
Macro 4: Turn off all the blue LEDs (set brightness to 0%).
Macro 5: Toggle LED demo mode (used to turn on and off Demo Mode).
Macro 6: First, set all LEDs blue with 10% brightness. Then set all LEDs blue to 0%
brightness. Then close the relay contact. Then open the relay with a delay of 1
second between commands.
The “Background Light” slider adjusts the maximum brightness settings for ALL the LEDs.
For example if the slider is midway, a command that sets brightness
to 100% will shine at 50%.
When the mouse hovers over a button, a tooltip displays with the
assigned macro command.
Click on symbol on the button to edit the currently assigned macro.
Macro edit window for the selected button
The text field at the top window there allows the user to edit the macro name.
The up/down arrows buttons allow the user to change the commands order of
execution.
The icon allows you to edit the delay time and the command interface type.
The icon will DELETE the command. Use with caution.
The icon both inserts and adds a new command ABOVE the current row.
To add a command at the end of the list, click the add button .

Clicking the ADD button will display a list of up to 128 commands.
UI-IP8-DP – Default command list
Click on any of the available commands listed to change the delay time or interface type.
Commands are strings that are sent to different targets or “interfaces”.
After selecting a command, you can select the desired “interface” (where it will be
sent), and the delay time prior to the next command in the macro.
UI-IP8-DP – Command Interface
The “Delay (ms)” field is the time to wait before proceeding to the next command (if any).
The interface (target) to which the commands are sent may be one of the following:
Device works like TELNET but you can select based on the Device Name.
SysCMD is the keypad itself. Like control of the LED lights or relay state.
TELNET is a specific IP address and port the command is sent.
Relay contacts (The relay contacts can also be controlled using SysCMD)
