Telnet Input
The Telnet program runs on your computer and connects your PC to a server on the network. You can then
enter commands through the Telnet program and they will be executed as if you were entering them
directly on the server console. This enables you to control the server and communicate with other servers
on the network.
General tab
- Port: Enter the port number the Telnet input uses to receive data. The default telnet port is 9100.
- Description: This field displays the description of the port number, as given by Windows. It is not editable.
Telnet Options tab
- Log all Winsock and network messages: Select to have PlanetPress keep a log of all Winsock and other
network messages that occur from the Telnet input. These messages are related to files sent from other
systems using a telnet connection. Since these messages can accumulate, you have the option of not
logging them, and are kept in a Log folder relative to your install folder. They are named teldate.log, where
date is the current date in yyyymmdd numerical format.
- Job delimiters: Enter the strings that tell PlanetPress Design the data file being retrieved through the
Serial input is complete. Each line in the Job delimiters text box is a different delimiter. You can enter as
many delimiters as you want, one per line.
