System information
Gathering Information
When the machine is completely set up for modem communications; record
the following information. (This information is required by the software on
the central computer in order to communicate with the machine on location.)
! The name and address of the location.
! The phone number of the line connected to the machine’s modem.
! The Machine Name assigned.
! The Modem Password assigned.
! The Call Window Settings.
! The Machine ID Number ( On-screen ID - see page 4.2 for location)
Note: The ID number is a three digit hexadecimal number (base 16).
It will consist of the numbers zero through nine and the letters A
through F. It will not contain the letter “O” - any O character is a
numerical zero.
The Black Widow - Portable Drive
To prepare the machine for communications with a portable drive, follow the
set up for the modem (above) skipping the first step: Installing a Modem.
Transferring Files with a Portable Drive
A portable drive acts as a “middle man” during file transfers between the
Black Widow and the central computer. Instead of files going directly from
the central computer to the machine, files are put on the portable drive and
then transferred to the Black Widow or to the central computer.
The process of transferring files to the Black Widow is called uploading and
from the Black Widow to the central computer is downloading.
Typical files that are uploaded (to the Black Widow) are:
!! Team Files
!! Team Fees
