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.
Requirements
n
Telnet must be enabled on the Security page of the device's web interface.
n
Your computer must have a Telnet client. Telnet port 23 is used.
n
Your computer must be able to connect to the device over the network.
n
When you connect via Telnet, you must log in using the admin account.
Usage notes
n
The > character is the command prompt.
n
In addition to the camera control commands, Telnet session management commands are available –
help, history, and exit.
n
CTRL-5 clears the current serial buffer on the device.
Getting More Information
Use a question mark as a command or command parameter
to display a list of available commands,
subcommands, or command parameters. For example,
?
returns all top-level commands;
network ?
returns the valid subcommands for the
network
command; and
network ping ?
returns the
parameters available for the
network ping
command.
Firmware updates sometimes implement new commands or command parameters. We do not update the
manuals for every firmware update, and occasionally the author makes a mistake. Querying returns the
command parameters that are currently available, along with guidance on command syntax.
Typographical Conventions
