Dial Up
One of the most important features of the IP Gateway Toolbox is the capability to call a
modem connected to any unit (RTU or FEP) in the system by means of a dialup modem
(HAYES
or compatible), and perform all the functions of the IP Gateway Toolbox remotely
(from your office, home, or any other place).
You may perform the following remotely:
•
Site Configuration upload and download
•
System software diagnostics
•
Error logger retrieving to identify hardware and software failures
•
Phone book downloading
•
Specific file downloading
Modem Connections
Before using the Dial Up program, ensure that the baud rate of the communication port is
equal to the modem baud rate. Use the Communication Setup utility to modify the
communication port baud rate. See Communication Setup later in this chapter.
Connect the modem to the RTU or FEP (MCP-M, IP Gateway, FIU) communication port
defined as RS-232 Local Computer port by the Site Configuration program.
To connect the modem, use the modem adapter cable FLN6458 (with male 25-pin D-type
connector).

The FEP communication port is defined as Computer port to allow the engineer to temporarily
disconnect the modem and connect the IP Gateway Toolbox instead. Note that the connection
cable to the computer is different.
