Chapter 3: Remote Operation Telnet Access
3.2 Telnet Access
TimeVault can perform setup and control operations sent from a remote location through
the Internet. The protocol used for Internet access to TimeVault is Telnet, a standard
Internet communications program, with an ASCII character-based interface, that is
bundled with Windows 95/98/NT and connects to TimeVault’s NET Port. Use Telnet just
like Procomm, or any other serial interface program, by entering F-series commands, to
which TimeVault responds.
The Utility Port takes precedence over the Telnet session. If the Utility Port is active,
either Telnet login will fail or, if already logged in, trying to send any Telnet command
generates the response:
NOTICE: Cannot respond to command because Utility Port
session has priority.
Telnet sessions have a 15 minute session timer. If there is no activity on the Telnet
session, the timer automatically terminates the session.
