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 media player via
Telnet.

Open

Connect to the media player using the Open command. Once you are connected to the
player, you can enter the MSVPP commands the same as you would if you were using the
RS-232 link.

Connect to the media player by, at the Telnet prompt, typing

open

<IP address> 4000

(or

4001

) and then pressing <Enter>. As soon as you issue the command, the connection is

established. No further prompts are displayed until you break or disconnect the connection
to the matrix player.

NOTE:

4000

is for player control,

4001

is for serial port pass-through.

TIPS:

The session can also be established directly from the Command prompt by typing

Telnet

<IP

address>

4000

(or

4001

) and then pressing <Enter>

The Telnet Client can also be added or removed by clicking
