Command Reference for Third-Party Control
The Vaddio Command Line Interface SHell (CLISH) allows an external device such as an AMX or
Crestron presentation system to control the camera. These commands are sometimes called Telnet
commands. The Vaddio CLISH is also used for writing macros.
Requirements
n
Your computer must be able to connect to the device over the network.
n
Telnet must be enabled on the Security page of the device's web interface.
n
You may need to install a Telnet client on your computer.
n
Port 23 is used for Telnet communication.
n
To start a CLISH session, 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, session management commands are available – help,
history, and exit.
n
CTRL-5 clears the current serial buffer on the device.
Querying for 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.
To discover the valid range of values for a command,
use a value that you expect to be out of range.
Firmware updates sometimes implement new commands or command parameters, or change value
ranges. 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

{ x | y | z } – Choose x, y, or z.
