Instruction manual

OVERVIEW
● The integrated voice-data dialing plan recognizes the different types of data
endpoints (digital/analog and remote/local) in a connection and automatically inserts
the required data communication equipment.
In addition, autobauding supports the
alignment of equipment with the capacity to transmit at different data rates.
● Station Hunting supports the use of a single dial code to access a group of host
computer ports.
● Terminal Dialing provides the user with fast access to data communications via
keyboard dialing at a terminal or PC.
● Command Mode provides a menu of data services supporting terminal dialing and
display and control of user data port options.
A user friendly Change Options menu
is provided for user administration of data options.
● Expert Mode is an enhancement that provides an alternative method of accessing
Command Mode functions.
It eliminates the display of menus and allows multiple
commands to be entered on a single line.
Expert mode is suitable for use with
computer-driven scripts for call setup.
● Communication Access Manager (CAM) is an MS-DOS* software application that
provides a phone manager for placing voice and data calls for the user and VT100†
terminal emulation.
CAM may be used on either STARLAN NETWORK client
workstations or on PCs connected to System 25. CAM has a 200-entry directory
with one-touch dialing for both voice and data calls and auto-login capability for data
calls to host computers.
CAM’s Remote Access feature provides password
protected unattended access to PC files and electronic mail. File transfer is
supported with the popular XMODEM protocol.
● STARLAN NETWORK ACCESS is an MS-DOS software application that allows PCs
not connected to the STARLAN NETWORK to call through the System 25 STARLAN
NETWORK Interface and run STARLAN NETWORK client software to access file and
printer servers on the STARLAN NETWORK. ACCESS uses a PC’s serial
communications port to communicate with the STARLAN NETWORK Interface.
ACCESS is compatible with NETBIOS, permitting execution of most applications
written for the IBM‡ PC Network and IBM Token Ring Network.
