command line interface that can be accessed from
Telnet or RS-232. A list of these commands
Telnet (TCP/IP)
The Telnet port by default is disabled. To turn on Telnet
control, set the Telnet port number (typically Port 23)

for the Telnet session can be enabled 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.
To access the telnet client, open a command prompt on

RS-232
On the back of the DVP there are two serial control
ports configured as a DTE that supports the RS-232
protocol. A Null-Modem cable should be used between
the DVP 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
administrator has the ability to disable the port by un-
checking the COM port enable checkbox.
