>TRACER SYSTEM CONFIGURATION > SITE NAME
Provides a user-defined alphanumeric discription (up to 25 characters) for the TRACER 4208 system.
>TRACER SYSTEM CONFIGURATION > RF BANDPLAN
Sets the bandplan for the TRACER 4208. Each channel is divided into three bandplans (1, 2, or 3). Both
local and remote TRACER 4208 must be configured with the same bandplan (1, 2, or 3) but different
channel plans (Plan A or Plan B). For example, the transmitter at one end of the link will transmit in
bandplan 1 of channel A (the lower portion of the spectrum) and receive in bandplan 1 of channel B (the
upper portion). Consequently, the receiver at the other end should receive in bandplan 1 of channel A (the
lower portion) and transmit in bandplan 1 of channel B (the upper portion). (Refer to Figure 5). The
TRACER 4208 comes factory programmed with RF bandplan set to Band 1.

>TRACER SYSTEM CONFIGURATION > MODEM CONTROL
Configures the modem control leads on the RS-232 port (terminal interface located on the rear panel of the
unit). Set
MODEM CONTROL to ENABLED when connecting the unit to a modem (using a null modem
adapter). Setting
MODEM CONTROL to DISABLED prevents the TRACER 4208 from monitoring DCD and
enables data to be sent to the VT100 continuously.
MODEM CONTROL must be set to DISABLED when the
VT100 terminal is in use. The TRACER 4208 comes factory programmed with
MODEM CONTROL set to
DISABLED.
>TRACER SYSTEM CONFIGURATION > MODEM CONNECTION (LOGOUT)
Causes the TRACER 4208 to de-assert Clear To Send (CTS) and DSR for a time greater than 20 msec.
This signals the modem to disconnect the analog connection. Hangup-On-DTR-Drop may need to be
explicitly enabled on some modems. If
PASSWORD PROTECTION is ENABLED, this menu also causes the unit
to close the current session and return to the TRACER System Status menu page and wait for password
input.
Press <Ctrl+Z> three times from the terminal interface to disable MODEM CONTROL when
the modem control leads are active.
