For example, enter TFTP -i 192.168.0.96 PUT R26201610800.002 to upload the file to port 2 on the UDM-0404 with IP address 192.168.0.96. 7. The command window can be closed.
Advanced Administration Restoring the UDM-0404 Configuration File 1. Run your TFTP client. If using the Windows client, move to step 2. 2. Start a command session on the PC. Change to the directory where the Hub Configuration file is to be stored on the PC: e.g. cd\udm and cd\config. 3. Type in the following command at the prompt, observing the parameters below: TFTP -i [IP address] put hxxxxx.hub Where hxxxxxx.hub is the name of the hub configuration file. Hub configuration file names start with an h.
Advanced Administration Retrieving IR Files From the UDM Ports 1. Run your TFTP client. If using the Windows client, move to step 2. 2. Create a folder on the C: drive named RX. 3. Browse the new RX folder with your TFTP client. 4. At the command prompt, type the following command to retrieve an IR/Serial file from the UDM Receiver connected to port 1: C:\RX\ TFTP –i get iname.001 Example: C:\RX\ TFTP –i 192.168.0.96 get isony.001 5.
Advanced Administration If the name of the Hub Protocol file is not known typing in i or s followed by any logical characters will find the file, as there is only one protocol file in the UDM-0404. A file name starting with either i or s will retrieve that file. Use a name that will identify the protocol file for the project. For example: imyprotocol.hub is an acceptable name. 4. When complete, close the command window. Restoring the Hub Configuration File 1. Run your TFTP client.
Advanced Administration Backend Commands In case of human error the Command Line can be used to perform several Administrative tasks on the multi format video hub. Changing the Login Password 1. Create a hyperterminal session with the UDM-0404 using default serial connections. 2. To change the password enter the original password and new password separated by a colon at the login prompt. For Example type in admin:endeleo at the login prompt, to change the password from admin to endeleo. 3. Reset the Hub.
