Dial-up Page
The Dial-up Page allows you to configure a dial-up connection from the ACU panel to the server.
Dial-up communication is used when an ACURT Panel is connected to a standard voice dial
telephone line and the server PC has an external US Robotics modem connected to its RS232
communication port. The PC is configured to dial the phone number connected to the ACURT to
download new information. The ACURT panel may also Dial-up the Host PC to report alarms or
download events.
When using Dial-up communications to an ACURT field panel you must install an external modem at
the server. The Topaz Software ONLY supports the (USR) US Robotics 33.6 faxmodem or the 56K
V.90 faxmodem, Sportster modem models 0701 or 0459.
For more information on setting up the external modem set External Modem Setup later in the
chapter
To navigate to the Dial-up page from within the Field Panel pages, click the Dial-up tab button. The
following page displays.
Note: The Serial Number field on the Field Panel, Setup page is required for Dial-up communication.
Note: If a message “Panel with dial-up Server COM Port must be selected” displays, then you have not selected a port
in the Server COM Port field that is configured as a dial-up port. To do this, click OK and then, from the Field
Panel, Setup page, click the link arrow next to Server COM Port. On the Serial Port window, select a Serial Port on
the right. Under Port Connection Device, select the device that is configured for dial-up. Press the Save button.
