6.8 Telnet Control
Before attempting to use the Telnet control, ensure that both the
Scaler (via the LAN port) and the PC/Laptop or control system being
used are connected to the same active network.
To access the Telnet control in Windows 7, click on the 'Start' menu
and type 'cmd' into the Search field then press Enter (see below forreference). Under Windows XP, go to the 'Start' menu and click on'Run', type 'cmd' then press Enter.
Under Mac OS X, go to the file menu then navigate to
GoApplicationsUtilitiesTerminal (see below for reference).

Once in the command line interface (CLI) type 'telnet' along with the
IP address of the unit you wish to control (see below for reference).
This will bring us into the device which we wish to control.

Note: The IP address can be obtained from the OSD menu under
Information. If the IP is changed then the IP Address required for Telnet
access will also needs to be change accordingly.

15

Type '?' to list all the available commands (see below for reference).

Note: All commands will not be executed unless followed by acarriage return. Commands are case-insensitive.

16

6.9 WebGUI Control
On a PC/Laptop that is connected to same active network as the
Scaler, open a web browser and type device's IP address on the web
address entry bar. The browser will bring up the control page of the
Scaler (see below for reference).

Note: The IP address can be obtained from the OSD menu under
Information. If the IP is changed then the IP Address required for Telnet
access will also needs to be changed accordingly.
