Telnet Serial Command API
The Vaddio Telnet command API allows an external device such as an AMX or Crestron presentation
system to control the camera. It is also used for writing macros. Network connectivity and a Telnet client
are required; Telnet port 23 is used.
In addition to the camera control commands, Telnet session management commands are available – help,
history, and exit.
Notes
By default, Telnet access is disabled in all firmware releases issued
after mid-December 2019. Enable it on the Security page of the web
interface.
When you connect via Telnet, you must log in using the admin
account.
Usage notes:
n
The > character is the command prompt.

CTRL-5 clears the current serial buffer on the device.

Using a question mark as a command or command parameter
will bring up a list of available
commands, subcommands, or command parameters. For example,
?
returns all top-level commands;
system ?
returns the valid subcommands for the system command; and
system reboot ?
returns
the parameter available for the system reboot command.
Firmware updates sometimes implement new command parameters. We do not update the manuals for
every firmware update. Querying will help you discover the command parameters that have been added
since the last update.
