Communicating with TPDIN-Monitor-WEB via TELNET
NOTE: This only works with the original TPDIN-MONITOR-WEB.
It is not implemented in the newer TPDIN-MONITOR-WEB2. You can use the ability of telnet to connect to the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB TCP port and use the HTTP interface to control the unit. Connect to the device through telnet by designating the TPDIN-MonitorWEB units IP address and the communications port (typically port 80) as follows:
- telnet (ip address: 80)
To get the present values of the TPDIN-Monitor-WEB issue the following telnet command:
- GET /status.xml HTTP/1.1
TELNET will respond with latest data readings in the following format:
- HTTP/1.1 200 OK Connection: close Content-Type: text/xml Cache-Control: no-cache
1 1 1 1 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 45.1 24.0
To toggle a relay from one state to another, for instance ON to OFF, use the following command and define which relay(led) to toggle.
Note: led1=relay1, led2=relay2, etc. Running the command again will toggle the relay from OFF to ON. GET /leds.cgi?led=1 HTTP/1.1 GET /leds.cgi?led=1 HTTP/1.1
