User Controls
The user controls affecting the Front-panel interface are listed. Compel is the preferred
command method:
1. Allow or disallow local control. This affects many parameters needed to deliver the
audio output payload. Set by Compel or the factory.
2. Freeze (or “park”) a front-panel screen. Press in the < È > and the buttons
at the same time. Press any button later to release.
3.1.5. Terminal
The Terminal interface is a interactive, text-based control method, somewhat deprecated in
favor of the web interface. It may be accessed from the Serial M&C port using a text-based
terminal. This can be a legacy VT100, or it can be a PC equipped with a serial port, said PC
running Procomm or Teraterm (Hyperterminal is not the best choice). Or it may be accessed
from a Telnet session, using the User=term and the Password=termterm.* From the web
diagnostic page, the “Terminal Command” text box may also be used to send Terminal
commands, with replies posted to the same web page.
* To exit out of your terminal session, enter the terminal command exit.
A listing of the available user-accessible Terminal commands is given in Appendix 1.
However, it is fairly easy to access information about Terminal commands using the ‘apropos
searchword’ command, where searchword is a keyword clue with no whitespace. An example
would be using ‘wan’ if you are trying to get WAN port setup commands.
The user controls affecting the Terminal interface are listed:
1. Assign Terminal to the Serial M&C port.
2. Terminal baud rate.
3. Allow or disallow local control. This affects many parameters needed to deliver the
audio output payload. Set by Compel or the factory.
