Remote Maintenance Using telnet

Important

  • Remote Maintenance should be protected so that access is allowed to administrators only.

  • The password is the same as the one of the administrators on Web Image Monitor controlled from networked computers. (Web Image Monitor is a management tool installed on this machine to monitor this machine or configure settings for this machine by using a web browser.) When the password is changed using "telnet", other's change also.

  • Only one user at a time can log in to perform remote maintenance.

  • If you are using Windows 7/8.1/10, you must enable the telnet client beforehand.
