Disable Need for Login User/Password from the VxShell or VxWorks when using telnet

[Omron Forums Support]

 

To get rid of the login request for the VxShell in MicroHAWK, you must set a flag in the Bootloader. Note *Below Example is Using an ID-30 With VCOM and Micro-Putty.
Once you know the device is connected Open Device Manager and note the COM port # for Microscan CDC Driver (COM # 15 in this example). You will need this to setup the communications in later steps. (Not needed for the ID/MV-30/40 with No VCOM)
 

 

VCOM Setup:
1. Connect to the device using either Weblink (Open Web Browser ?Type 192.168.188.2 into the Address bar) or ESP as an Ethernet/USB connection.

 

2. In the Communications setting Tree set VCOM to Enabled. (For Weblink Click the  ICON and Select Advanced Settings)

 

 

3. Save the Settings to the unit.

Micro-Putty Setup:
1. Next Open Micro-Putty (ID/MV-20/30 Only) and select a serial connection. Use the COM port # Noted in Device Manager (COM 15) Set Baud rate to 115200K.

 
 

2.Click Open button and Follow Instructions Below:

• ID/MV-20: Open a Micro-Putty connection to the VCOM port of the reader.  Reset reader, and when connection is reestablished, spam the escape key.
• ID/MV-30: If VCOM port IS enabled, same as ID-20your, if VCOM port is NOT enabled, same as ID-40
• ID/MV-40:  hold the escape key down on a serial connection to the UART.
•  

 

3.Once in the Bootloader, Type {p} Hit {ENTER} to print Bootloader parameters (not the same as App level boot parameters)

?

(The Red Box indicates the flags you want to change.)
 

4. Now Type {c} Hit {ENTER} to Change Bootloader Parameters. Continue hitting {ENTER} until reaching the Flags Parameter. Type in the HEX value exactly as seen after adding 0x20 to the total.

(In this example the setting is 0x2200 it is changed to 0x2220)
 

5. Then Continue hitting {ENTER} until you see “Writing file to SPI flash ... (is 100%)”.

 

6. Again, issue the command to print parameters by typing {p} Hit {ENTER} Make sure Value is changed and then Type {reset} Hit {ENTER} COM port will close and close out the program.

 

7. Now remove power then re-apply to reboot the device and wait for the unit to fully reboot.

To Test:
Open Command Prompt and Type {telnet XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX} ("X" are the IP address of your device and in this example 192.168.188.2) Hit {ENTER}

 

It goes directly to a Prompt bypassing the Login and Password.
