Simple ASCII Manager Interface
The LongView IP KVM extender system features a Simple ASCII Manger Interface (SAMI) that
allows you to have limited control over your LongView IP KVM transmitters and user stations via
an ASCII-based protocol delivered via TCP. The password protected SAMI is enabled over the
serial port on your LongView IP KVM extender system. The SAMI supports the following
commands:
• set - The set command will be used to set a parameter to a specified value.
• get - The get command will be used to retrieve the value of a parameter.
• use - The use command will be used to perform an action which does not change the value of a
parameter. For example, to initiate a session, the user must send the password with the use
command (
use password sessionpassword).
• resp - The resp command will be used to respond to a request from the client.
• error - The user station will respond with the error command when an invalid message is
received. The format of the error response is error command parameter failure. If a specific
error can be identified, the user station will return that error.
The following table describes the parameters that can be utilized through the SAMI.
