Telnet tips
It is not the intention of this manual to detail all of the operations and functionality
of Telnet; however, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating the
switcher via Telnet.
Open
Connect to the switcher using the Open command. Once you are connected to the
switcher, you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if you were using
the RS-232 link.
Connect to the switcher as follows:
1.
At the Telnet prompt, type
open {IP address}
and then press [Enter].
If the switcher is not password protected
, no further prompts are displayed
until you break or disconnect the connection to the switcher.
If the switcher is password protected
, Telnet displays the password prompt.
2.
If necessary, at the password prompt, type
{password}
and then press [Enter].
Connection to the switcher via the Ethernet can be password protected. There
are two levels of password protection: administrator and user. A person
logged on as an administrator has full access to all MPX 866 A switching
capabilities and editing functions. Users can select video and/or audio for
output, select test patterns, set RGB and audio mutes, select a blue screen, and
view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the switcher
ships with both passwords set to {carriage return}.
Once you are logged in, the switcher returns either
Login Administrator
or
Login User
. No further prompts are displayed until you break or disconnect
the connection to the switcher.
