Controlling a 882 remotely
In addition to controlling the 882 using the front panel keys, you can also control the 882
from a remote PC either through the Virtual Front Panel Web-based interface or the
command line interface.
Using the Virtual Front Panel to operate a 882 remotely
The 882 generator has a built-in Web server that provides a graphical interface called the
Virtual Front Panel to control the 882. With the Virtual Front Panel, you can perform the
same tasks as you would with the 882’s front panel. To use the Virtual Front Panel on your
PC you must have the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.5 or later installed on your PC.
You can download the JRE from http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_ie.jsp. For
more information about using the Virtual Front Panel, see “Working with the Virtual Front
Panel” on page 20.
Maintaining the 882’s file system using the 882 FTP Browser
If you create objects on a PC, such as images or formats, you can copy these objects to a
882 if you want the 882 to load them locally. For example, you may want to create a new
image on the file server PC, and then copy the image to certain 882s in your production
environment. The 882 FTP Browser enables you to copy files between the file server PC
and the 882s.
You can also use the 882 FTP Browser to copy files between media in the 882. For
example, you can update the 882’s PC card with the 882’s flash memory or update the
flash memory with files on the PC card. You can also update the media of one 882 with the
contents of another 882’s media.
For more information about using the 882 FTP Browser, see “Working with the 882 FTP
Browser” on page 23.
Operating the 882 remotely through the command line interface
You can operate the 882 remotely using the command line interface through either a
Telnet session over an Ethernet LAN or the command terminal on the Virtual Front Panel
Web page. For instructions on connecting to the 882 using Telnet, see “Establishing a
Telnet session with the 882 on page 33. For instructions on using the command terminal
through the Virtual Front Panel, see “Working with the CMD (Command) Terminal” on
page 22.
