Chapter 5 Using Telnet

Unlike using HyperTerminal through an RS-232 port, Telnet allows you to access the
device through a local network or from any location in the Internet where your device
is visible. Just as Windows HyperTerminal, Windows Telnet allows you to configure
the network, communications and security settings in your PM180, and to view
certain diagnostics information such as device diagnostics and network statistics.

Connecting to the Device

You can establish a telnet connection to the device from Windows HyperTerminal or
from Windows Telnet Client.

Running Telnet from HyperTerminal

1. Run HyperTerminal from the Windows Start -> Programs ->

Accessories -> Communications menu.

2. Type a name for your new connection and click OK.

3. In the “Connect Using” box, select TCP/IP (Winsock). In the “Host

address” box, type the PM180 IP address. Leave the default
Telnet port number 23 unchanged. Click OK.
