General Settings
:
Module Name: It is used to define a name for
the 605M-D1 modem (max. 20 chars). This
name is prepended to any outgoing SMS
messages from the modem. Please try to use a
name that is unique and easily identifiable by
the operators.
Enable GSM router Authentication: This
setting needs to be enabled only if you use
password authentication while connecting
through an ELPRO 605M-R1 router. It provides
an extra level of security on the 605M-R1 router
side to drop any unsolicited TCP connections.
The password fields (max 32 chars) are enabled
once this setting is enabled and the proper
password needs to be entered.
Enable Verbose Mode: Check this if you need
to see verbose messages in the terminal
window while the 605M-D1 modem is running in
the automated connection mode. This setting is
great for debugging any connection problems.
An operator has to just look at the terminal
window and identify the problem point.
However, it is advised to disable verbose mode
once the connection has been tested. This
prevents unnecessary recording of these debug
messages by the attached devices upon
deployment.
Data Sending Timeout (DSTO): This sets the
maximum time that the modem waits before sending
anyway a packet whose size is less than the one
defined by the Data Packet Size field. It is defined in
100ms units (10 = 1 sec). A value of 0 means that it
waits forever for the defined packet size to arrive. The
timeout starts when the beginning of the data packet
arrives at the modem
The default timeout value is 5 (500ms). This is an
advanced setting and does not need to be changed
for normal operations. The time out begins from the
time the first character in the data packet arrives at
the modem.
Data Packet Size: This is an advanced setting that
sets the packet size in bytes to be used by the TCP/IP
stack for sending data. The default value is 256 (max
value = 1500).
SIM PIN Number: This field is used to define the SIM
card PIN number (max 8 chars) in case SIM PIN
security is enabled on the 605M-D1 modem. It
provides a great level of security against SIM card
theft. If SIM PIN security is enabled then the modem
will try to automatically enter this PIN on startup. If the
PIN number is incorrect then it will immediately abort
any further process of the automated connection mode. Exercise care while using this setting. Please refer to the
section Diagnostics > PIN Code Request for more information.
