Domain suffix: amx.internal
Entry 1: 192.168.40.7
Entry 2: 192.168.40.8
Note:
When the DXLink Transmitter or Receiver is in DHCP Mode, these are active values,
NOT the stored values that only apply to Static IP Mode.
GET ETHERNET
MODE
Displays the current LAN configuration setting.
Settings are
either
“auto” in which the LAN driver will discover its settings based on the
network it is connected to
or
<speed> and <duplex> where speed is either 10 or 100 and
duplex is either full or half.
Example:
>GET ETHERNET MODE
Ethernet mode is auto.
Note:
See SET ETHERNET MODE on page 114.
GET FRIENDLY
<name>
Displays the device’s friendly name (for NDP).
GET IP
Displays the IP configuration of a device.
The device displays its D:P:S, Host Name, Type (
DHCP

), IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Gateway IP, and MAC Address.
Example:
>GET IP
HostName DXL-RX-36d0110
Type DHCP
IP Address 192.168.43.63
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0

GET LOCATION
Displays the location parameter for NDP, which is set by using the
SET LOCATION
command
(see page 114).
GET SN
Returns the device’s serial number.
MSG [ON|OFF]
Enables/Disables extended diagnostic messages.
• MSG ON [error|warning|info|debug] sets the terminal program to display log messages
generated by the Master. The level of log printed to the terminal window depends both on
the level used when sending the message and the output level selected with “msg on.”
For example if log output is enabled via “msg on warning” then logs produced at levels
AMX_ERROR and AMX_WARNING will be displayed, but not logs produced at levels
AMX_INFO or AMX_DEBUG.
The order of severity from highest to lowest is ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG.
If no severity is supplied with “msg on,” the default setting is WARNING.
• MSG OFF disables the display.
Example:
> MSG ON
Extended diagnostic information messages turned on.
> MSG OFF
Extended diagnostic information messages turned off.
NDP UNBIND
Clears the NDP binding to a Master (takes effect after next boot).
PING [ADDRESS]
Pings an address (IP or URL), to test network connectivity to and confirms the
presence of another networked device.
The syntax matches the PING application in Windows or Linux.
Example:
>ping 192.168.29.209
192.168.29.209 is alive.
