4.3 Telnet Interface
Chapter 5. SERIAL INTERFACE OPERATION
The LPOD has a Telnet interface for the purpose of equipment M&C via the
optional Serial Remote Control protocol. The Telnet interface requires user login
at the Administrator level and Read/Write level. Once logged into the Telnet
interface as the Administrator, you have access to the optional serial-based
Remote Control Interface. An example of the login process and remote control
operation is shown here:
Figure 4-1. Telnet Interface Example – Windows Command-line
4.3.1 Using HyperTerminal for Telnet Remote Control Operation
There is a disadvantage when using Windows Command line as a Telnet client
with the optional Remote Control protocol. For the messages coming from the
Telnet Server, Command line cannot translate a carriage return command (\r) to
a carriage return + line feed command (\r\n). Therefore, any multi-line Target-
to-Controller response (e.g., the response to the FRW? query) shows as one line,
with the latter lines overwriting the previous lines.
To see the full response messages, you can use the HyperTerminal terminal
emulation program configured as a Telnet client. An example of the login process
and remote control operation, when using HyperTerminal as the interface, is
shown here:
