1. Command
The PRECA 1280i controls the receiving of various commands through a digital interface.
Commands are written in ASCII codes, with the following structure: the first letter indicates
the action, followed by the under-bar (_), and the contents of the action.
(E.g.: “m_ ZMT t” moves the Zoom (ring) toward the Tele side.)
The font is not case sensitive (all letters are converted to capitals internally).
The percent (%) symbol can be substituted for the under-bar (_).
2. Communication Means
Communications with the PRECA 1280i can be made through the RS-232C, Telnet or FTP.
With RS-232C and Telnet, communications are only controllable, but with FTP, image data
can also be transferred through its protocol.
Commands are made available through any of the above means (some commands,
however, may not function depending on the interface).
3. Establishing Communications
For Telnet and FTP, you must establish communications (log on) before issuing
commands. This document does not address the details of Telnet or FTP protocols. Refer
to the appropriate software Help files for information on RFC and Internet connections.
If you already have an Internet connection, you can check for Telnet and FTP accessibility
using your client software provided with Windows 2000 or 95/98/NT.
3-1: Log on with Telnet
From the windows DOS prompt, enter the Telnet IP address (e.g., Telnet
128.21.160.10) to activate the Telnet client.
If the internal server “User ID” of PRECA 1280i is set to “anonymous” under “Network
settings” in the Setup menu, logging on is automatic. But, if a user ID is set,
identification will be requested as follows:
Welcome to (Imager’s) Telnet Server: 103.009.37.0707a
530
login:
Input user ID
331
Password:
Input password
Log on using the user ID and password that are assigned in “Internal Server” of
“Network settings” in the Setup menu.
