External Control
Telnet (TCP/IP)
The telnet client within the HD Portal plus provides
access to the Command Line Interface through the
TCP/IP protocol. By default, TCP telnet is disabled but
can be activated from the Web Portal with an optional
password. The available commands are the same as
listed in the RS-232 section.
To turn on Telnet control, set the Telnet port number
(typically Port 23) and check the TCP/IP port enable
check box. A password for the Telnet session can be
activated by entering a password in the Password for
TCP/IP connection text box. If a password is not desired
on the Telnet session, leave the text box blank.
Once logged in, type 'help' or '?' for a list of
commands.
Infra-Red
The Infra-Red (IR) receiver for the remote control plugs
into a jack located on the back of the HD Portal plus. It
can also be used for IR control via control systems such
as AMX or Crestron.

RS-232
On the back of the HD Portal plus there is a serial con-
trol port configured as a DTE that supports the RS-232
protocol. A Null-Modem cable should be used between
the HD Portal plus and the COM port on your PC.
Terminal session settings required for RS-232 control
are: 9600, 8, None, 1 with No Flow Control.
There is no password protection on this interface and,
by default the RS-232 port is enabled. The administra-
tor has the ability to disable the port by unchecking the
COM port enable check box.
