Dial Number #:_____

This position is where you enter a number from the column on the
left of the screen (0-18). The system will then automatically dial
the corresponding telephone number.

0: Manual Dial


This position is reserved for a temporary telephone number.
It is not meant to be kept on a permanent fi le but to be used
when a number needs to be entered and called quickly.

1-17:

The FCC/SCC II remote communications will accept up to
17 descriptions and telephone numbers which can be kept
on a permanent fi le.

18: Redial

When 18 is selected, the system will automatically redial
the previous telephone number.

To communicate with an ECC/WCC II system, fi rst turn the
modem on. The MR (Modem Ready) and the TR (Terminal Ready)
lights on the front of the modem should be on. (See the Installation
Section on page 5-2 for modem switch settings.)

Enter the desired “dial number” (0-18) and press

. The

OH (Off Hook) light on the modem should come on, and then you
should hear the modem making the telephone call. After the call
connects with the ECC/WCC II, you should see the CD (Carrier
Detect) light come on to indicate that the ECC/WCC II system
has answered the telephone. Then you should see the System
Parameter Screen
of the ECC/WCC II with the computer awaiting
your operator ID.

Note:

Remote communication is slower than communication

at the building. Wait for the screen to completely fi ll out before

entering your access code to avoid being cut off and returned

to the Remote Communications Screen.

Input your operator ID and press

. The cursor will move

to the right and await your code ID. Input your assigned code ID
and press

. You are now “signed on” and can do nearly

anything you can do at the ECC/WCC II.

When you are fi nished, you may hang up by accessing the Utility
Screen
and moving the cursor to “WCC II File Management” and
then pressing the right arrow key. The cursor should be at “Exit
ECC II.” Then press

.
