Operating Your V2406/2422/2426-XPE

Computer with a Telnet Client

Use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect your development workstation directly to the target computer, or

use a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the computer to a LAN hub or switch. Next, use a telnet client

on your development workstation to connect to the Telnet console utility of the target computer. After a

connection has been established, type the login name and password as requested to log on to the computer.

After logging in through the Telnet client, a list of commands will be available for operating the computer. Use

HELP to display all of the commands, or type HELP [command name] to display extended help for the

selected command. Some of these commands, such as DATE and TIME, are very useful for managing the

computer’s system time. Other commands, such as DIR and MKDIR, are good utilities for file management.

For example, to inspect the file structure of the root directory, type DIR.

NOTE: The default user id is “administrator” and the default password is not set; you need to create a new

password for this account to use this telnet client.

NOTE: There is a connection limitation on using Telnet clients. You are only allowed to create

connections with two Telnet clients at the same time.
