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 CrossPoint or MAV switcher via Telnet.

Open

Connect to the CrossPoint or MAV switcher 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 CrossPoint or MAV switcher as follows:

1. At the Telnet prompt, type open {IP address} and then press [Enter].

If the switcher is not password protected, no further prompts are displayed until you break or disconnect the connection to the CrossPoint or MAV

switcher.

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

2. If necessary, at the password prompt, type {password} and then press [Enter].

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 CrossPoint or MAV switching capabilities and editing functions. Users can select video and/or audio for output, select test patterns, set audio or RS-232 mutes, select a blue screen, and view all settings with the exception of passwords. By default, the CrossPoint or MAV switcher ships with both passwords set to {carriage return}.

Once you are logged in, the switcher returns either Login Administrator or Login User. No further prompts are displayed until you break or disconnect the connection to the CrossPoint or MAV switcher.

Escape character and Esc key

When Telnet is first started, the utility advises that the Escape character is ‘Ctrl+]’. Many SIS commands include the keyboard E key. Consequently, some confusion may exist between the Escape character and the Escape key.

The Telnet Escape character is a key combination, the Ctrl key and the ] key pressed simultaneously, that returns you to the Telnet prompt while leaving the connection to the CrossPoint or MAV switcher intact.

The Escape key is the E key on the computer keyboard.
