Contact Destination Host
The HMT140 Utility will instruct the HMT140 to send a
transmission (data packet) to the Destination Address. If the
Destination responds with an acknowledgement, the Utility
will indicate success, otherwise the Utility will display
“Failed” in the Result field. Use the Contact Destination Host
function to confirm that the HMT140 is sending packets to
the Destination.
Note:
The Destination must be capable of responding
with an acknowledgement for this function to
work.
Additional Program Parameters
The HMT140 Utility stores all program information in an INI
text file, HMT140Utility.INI. You can use this file for

1
Go to the Help menu, select Utility Folder Paths, and
then select Explore Setup.

Double-click the file, HMT140Utility.INI. It will open
in a text editor.
