System Configuration Via Telnet

Telnet Commands

Video Server has a Telnet daemon that allows administrators to access some seldom used functions. Using any general terminal program to connect to Video Server will prompt the user for a password. The Username is not requested since only administrators can access the Telnet daemon. The password is the same as that used for web access. After logging in, type “help” for the command list. If “debug” or “dinote” is not executed, Telnet will disconnect automatically after being idle for 1 minute.

System core debugging

General activities are recorded into SYSTEM.LOG continuously, but information about abnormal status is not recorded. Administrators can type the “debug” command to examine in-depth core debugging information. This causes Video Server to start dumping the detailed debugging information while the system is running. This is useful for examining if any errors have occurred when the system operates abnormally. The stored information will be cleared automatically after the dump. Video Server will continue to dump new messages unless the connection is broken. If Telnet is not connected, messages will be stored until administrators re-login.

Monitor changed status of digital inputs

Typing “dinote” will make Video Server send the current status of all digital inputs. After that, Video Server will continuously monitor DI status and send messages only when the state has changed. For example, after typing “dinote” the terminal will display

DI1=L

DI2=L

DI3=L

DI4=L

and after DI2 changes to H, the terminal will display DI2=H
