Introduction
A computer can monitor a PROFINET Controller module and check its operation on the network by
accessing the module’s built-in Command Line Interface. If a problem occurs, the Command Line
Interface can be used to help pinpoint the cause.
The Command Line Interface operates in background mode on the PROFINET Controller. It cannot
be used during powerup diagnostics or when the module is in firmware update mode. The Command
Line Interface may not be accessible during very heavy communications load.
This chapter describes the Command Line Interface, and explains how to use it.
Chapter 2, Monitor Commands defines the commands, counters, and Log Events that can be used
to view information about the operation of the network.
Chapter 3, Modify Commands defines additional password-protected commands that can be used
to control network functions.

Accessing the Command Line Interface
A computer can access the PROFINET Controller’s Command Line Interface either through the
module’s built-in Micro USB port or through the PROFINET network, using telnet with a terminal
emulation application such as HyperTerminal.
When connecting through the Micro USB port, a driver compatible with the PROFINET Controller’s
Micro USB port must first be installed as described in the PROFINET Controller Manual, GFK-2571.
Setting Up Telnet on the PROFINET Controller
A computer’s terminal emulation application can be used to communicate with the PROFINET
Controller via telnet. Telnet is initially disabled on the PROFINET Controller. It can be enabled by
connecting a Windows-based computer to the module’s Micro USB port, entering the telnetd
Command Line Interface command, and power-cycling the module.
Telnet functionality is accessed through port number 23.
Serial port settings must be 115200 baud, 8-None-1, with no flow control.
Once telnet has been enabled, it remains enabled through power cycles unless it is disabled again
using the telnetd Command Line Interface.
Note: If the PNC is power cycled or reset an established terminal emulation connection will
cease to work. Performing a manual Disconnect/Connect operation in the terminal
emulation program will restore operation of the connection.
Terminating a Command Line Interface Session
A Command Line Interface session terminates if:
1. the terminate command is entered.
2. the terminal application is disconnected, either physically or by command.
3. the session becomes inactive. The Command Line Interface automatically disconnects if the
session has remained inactive for the timeout period. The inactivity timeout value can be viewed
with the show sessionTimeout command. The default timeout, 600 seconds (10 minutes), can be
changed using the modify-level sessionTimeout command.
Terminal-related parameters (such as display settings and Alias values) that have been established
during a Telnet session are lost when the Telnet session is terminated. However, terminal-related
parameters that are established using the Command Line Interface are retained until the next power
cycle / restart.

Initial Prompt
After connecting a computer to the Command Line Interface, the following prompt appears:
device-name>
The device-name is the PROFINET Device Name of the module. If the device has not been
named yet, the device name is an empty character string “”.
The >indicates the Command Line Interface session is in the Monitor access level, which provides
a limited set of commands. Changing to Modify access level enables use of a greater number of
commands. In the Modify access level, the prompt changes to: =
Entering Parameter Values
Parameter values must be alphanumeric characters, except for a few special commands that are
specified in the command descriptions. Parameters can be passed in single quotes or double
quotes.
Keyboard Shortcuts
Some useful keyboard shortcuts include:
Ctrl –a jump to beginning of line.
Ctrl –e jump to end of line.
Ctrl-k cut remainder of line.
Ctrl-f move cursor forward one character.
Ctrl-b move cursor back one character.
Up / down cycle between previously used commands
The help edit command lists all command line editing shortcuts.

Viewing the Commands
To view the commands that are available in the current mode, at the Command Line prompt enter
either:
help to see the available global and non-global commands.
?to see only the non-global commands.
help global to see only the global commands
Completing a Partially-Typed Command
Enter ?or press the Tab key to automatically complete a partially-typed command or parameter.
Note: To complete “no” to “node” use ?, not Tab.
Listing the Parameters of a Command
After a command has been fully entered, type ?to list the possible parameters for that command,
and help text associated with those parameters.
Example for showing the ARP table:
device-name>
Initial display
device-name> sho?
Enter sho? to view self-completion help.
device-name> show
Enter show to see the full command
device-name> show ?
Enter show ? to view the available show parameters.
Partial results:
arp - Show ARP table
config - Show Configuration items
device-name> show arp
Enter arp to display the ARP table.
The “No” Parameter
For certain commands, entering a no parameter produces the opposite result. For example, the
command telnetd enables telnet while no telnetd disables telnet. The Command Line Interface help
shows these commands as: [no] command.
