Connecting as a Telnet Client

The Microsoft Telnet utility is available from the DOS prompt. Telnet allows you to input SIS commands to the ISS from the PC via Ethernet.

Access the DOS prompt and start Telnet as follows:

1.

Click Start > Run.

2.

At the Open prompt, type command.

3.

Click the OK button.

4.

At the DOS prompt, type telnet and press the keyboard Enter key. The

 

computer returns a display similar to figure A-3.

Telnet tips

It is not the intention of this manual to detail all of the operations and functionality of Telnet; however, some basic level of understanding is necessary for operating the ISS via Telnet.

Open

Connect to the ISS using the Open command. Once you are connected to the switcher, you can enter the SIS commands the same as you would if you were using the RS-232 link.

Connect to the ISS as follows:

1.

At the Telnet prompt, type open {IP address} and then press the

 

keyboard Enterkey.

 

If the switcher is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed

 

until you break or disconnect the connection to the ISS.

 

If the switcher is password protected, Telnet displays the password prompt.

2.

If necessary, at the password prompt, type the appropriate password and then

 

press the keyboard Enterkey.

Connection to the switcher via the Ethernet can be password protected. There are two levels of password protection: administrator and user. A person logged on as an administrator has full access to all ISS switching capabilities and editing functions. Users can select video and/or audio for output, select test patterns, set RGB and audio mutes, select a blue screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the ISS is shipped with no password assigned.
