a telephone connection with direct outward dialing as well as an
Internet/e-mail provider are requisites, which will create additional
costs.
If a telephone connection is not available or possible, a GSM wire-
less modem with RS 232 interface can be also used. In this case, a
GSM mobile phone contract with the option of data transmission is
required. Make sure that your location is sufficiently covered by the
network of the mobile network operator. Also the PIN of the SIM card
used must be deactivated. Please note that the dial-in numbers to the
Internet provider are usually not the same as those for the conven-
tional telephone network.
Prerequisites:
•
Signal conditioning instrument with RS232 interface
•
Adjustment software frame application, e.g. PACTware and device-
DTM
•
VEGACONNECT for parameter adjustment of the signal condition-
ing instrument (only with series 600)
•
Modem with RS232 interface
•
Available telephone connection with direct outward dialing at the
location of the signal conditioning instrument
•
External Internet provider (e.g. T-Online, MSN) with user name/
password for authentication
•
External e-mail account/address for transmission of measured
values with name of the inbox and outbox server (POP/SMTP) as
well as user name/password for authentification
•
E-mail address(es) of the requested measured value addressees
Connect the signal conditioning instrument via the RS232 interface to
the PC with PACTware (see chapter "Connection"). After the configu-
ration, you can connect the modem instead of the PC. For probable
later changes, it is now possible to address the instrument remotely
via modem and carry out your settings.
To adjust the parameters of the signal conditioning instrument and
at the same time check the e-mail transmission, an additional con-
nection is recommended. For this purpose, use for series 600 a
VEGACONNECT 4 and the I²C interface on the instrument front (see
chapter "Connection"). This way you can carry out the parameter
adjustment of the instrument via the I²C interface and simultaneously
test the e-mail transmission via modem and RS232. With VEGAMET
391 you can use the built-in USB interface.
Configuration of the RS232 interface
With this setting, you define which mode the RS232 interface should
operate in. The following options are available:
•
VVO protocol: Direct serial connection between signal condition-
ing instrument and PC for parameter adjustment and enquiry (e.g.
with PACTware and DTM)
•
PPP: Dial-up connection between signal conditioning instrument
and modem for independent transmission of e-mails (dial-out con-
nection) or enquiry via web browser (dial-in connection)
