8.4 Telnet Interface
The CRS-500 provides a Telnet interface for the purpose of Equipment M&C via the standard
equipment remote control protocol.
8.4.1 Using the Telnet Interface for Remote Control Operation
Chapter 9. SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT
The Telnet interface requires user login:
• Login (User Name) default = comtech
• Password default = comtech
An example of the login process is shown here:
Once logged into the Telnet interface, the standard remote control interface defined in Chapter
9. SERIAL-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT is accessible, as shown here:
8.4.2 Using HyperTerminal for Telnet Remote Control Operation
There is a disadvantage when using Windows Command-line as a Telnet client with the standard
Remote Control protocol. Since Command-line cannot translate a ‘\r’ (i.e., carriage return or
“CR”) to a ‘\r\n’ (i.e., CR+line feed “LF”) for the messages coming from Telnet Server, any multi-
line Target-to-Controller response (e.g., the response to the FRW? query) will be displayed as
one line, with the latter lines overwriting the previous lines.
