If no parameter is entered, the current state is displayed. The host name shall be displayed when a TCP
console connection is established. Entering the command without a parameter displays the current setting.
Help Menu(s): Ethernet
Syntax: HOSTname [name]
Parameters: name – ASCII string containing the name of the host in the local domain.
Characters are limited to A-Z, a-z, and ‘-‘. This name is combined to the domain name to uniquely identify the
system to the world (I.e., mysystem.crestron.com). It must be unique to the domain. Host names are case-
insensitive.
Possible Source: RS-232, CTP, Telnet, User Program

Processor Group: Ethernet Processors
I2CERROR
Description: This command enables/disables the logging of errors on the internal I2C bus to the error log. These errors
indicate recovery procedures occurred. The system functions normally even if these errors occur. This
command gives the user the ability to ignore these errors and not turn on the error light. Entering the
command without a parameter displays the current setting.
