Terminal Commands
The TVM-1600 includes a serial console port and accepts some text based commands at that port – some
of these commands are described below.
In all cases the serial parser will accept any command beginning with the right letter, c and channel, for
example, are equivalent.
All administration and configuration should be performed from the TVM Web
Browser.
Only if directed by AMX support should the command line be used. Inappropriate use
of the command line may result in misconfigurations.
