6. Telnet Interface
The HSM telnet interface is an IP based command line interface to control and monitor
the matrix. Only one (1) client is allowed to connect at a time through this interface and
with every new connection, the old connection will be automatically closed. The Telnet
connection timeout is set to infinity or until the user closes the current connection. The
Telnet authentication required depends on authentication status of web interface. If
telnet authentication is enabled, the password required will be same as what used for
web interface. The user can also disable the telnet interface from the web interface.
Figure-16 Putty client configuration
To use this interface, the user must open a TCP socket connection on port 6324 using
a compatible telnet client to communicate with matrix. Figure-16 shows an example of
using the PUTTY client on a Windows™ compatible PC. Mac and Linux users can use
the default telnet client.
6.1 Telnet Interface Commands
Telnet interface uses same commands as HSM serial (RS232) interface as described
section 4 above. The expected responses on the telnet interface are the same as
serial interface.
Note Regarding Telnet Port #
The standard telnet port for the Matrix is 6324, however older units
(shipped prior to 2012), may use port # 45454 instead
Avoid Using Invalid Commands
If you are planning to control the Matrix via Telnet, please make sure
that the controller does not send debug or other irrelevant
communication to the Telnet port as this may hang up the Matrix
