Serial / Telnet Commands


The following commands can be used to provide basic remote control of a VN-MATRIX system.

Commands can be issued either as part of a serial remote control configuration (see page 89) or by
using a Telnet application via the network (see page 106).

In either case, a control session must first be initiated by sending a valid username and password.

All commands must be terminated (actioned) with a ‘new line’ character (carriage return not required).
In programs such as Telnet, this is accomplished by pressing the Enter key.

Control Session Commands

user

Initiates a user login. To be able to change system settings you must login using the
‘admin’ user account.

EXAMPLE: user admin

pass

Specifies the password for the user account. By default this will be ‘admin’ but may have
been changed using the Web Interface (see page 81).

EXAMPLE: pass admin

exit

Terminates the current remote control session.
