To manually place a call:
1
Select or open the Connection profile for the destination you want to call.
2
Press Ctrl-D to invoke the DO menu.
3
Press 1 to invoke the Dial command.
4
Watch the information in Sessions status window. You should see the
number being called followed by a message that the network session is up.
If you do not see the 1=Dial option, it may be because of these reasons:
• You are not in the correct profile.
• You do not have the appropriate security level enabled.
• You have not entered a dial number in the profile.
• You have not entered an IP address in the profile (if IP routing is enabled).
To manually clear a call:
1
Open the Connection profile or tab over to the status window that displays
information about the active session you want to clear.
2
Press Ctrl-D to open the DO menu.
When you open the DO menu for an active session, it looks similar to this:
DO
…
>0=ESC
2=Hang Up
P=Password
3
Press 2 to invoke the Hang Up command.
The status window will indicate when the call has been terminated.
Saving the Pipeline configuration
To save the Pipeline configuration using this method, you must have
administrative privileges that include Field Service (such as the Full Access
profile). And you must have a serial connection to the Pipeline.
Note:
When you save the Pipeline configuration, the configuration data is
written to a text file on the disk of the accessing host. Passwords are not saved.
