Administering the 1101 through Ethernet TCP/IP
Using a terminal program like HyperTerminal or Telnet, you can control an 1101
card through a network Ethernet TCP/IP connection to the computer that hosts the
1101 you wish to access. An ASCII programmable GPIO device, such as a Broadcast
Tools SRC-16, with an appropriate Serial-Ethernet server, can also be used for hard-
ware control and status. Multiple connections and devices can be used. When you
are connected, you can retrieve information and change settings on the 1101 by us-
ing simple ASCII commands as discussed in
OPTIMOD-PC System/Mixer Control API
starting on page 6-1.
