K4 HELP: Rotate to landscape mode via ssh command K4-4.1.3

Hi,

i have a RPi3 which is running a Magic mirror and VNC Server is enabled.
The Kindle 4(Black one with no touch, Wikipedia 5.Gen) Firmware 4.1.3 is running kindlevncviewer and Shows me the information.

The goal is, hat the raspberry will start, check for existing VNC connection, if there is no connection, the rasperry will start the VNC connection on the kindle.

NOW the issue.
At the moment i am switching from portrait mode to landscape manually on the kindle.
I mounted the Kindle in a picture frame, so the keypad is not accessible.
Sometimes the Kindle has an issue and come up with the screensafer and portrait mode.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO SWITCH FROM potrait mode TO landscape mode WITH A SSH COMMAND?

THX
Hannes

Perhaps.
Is the K4 running the "Main" or the "Diags" system?
Why?
The "Diags" system uses X11, the "Main" system does not.
