5.1 Using AceManager to Configure the Modem

To install AceManager from the Sierra Wireless CD, click on the

“AceManager” link under “Modem Utilities” and follow the prompts. Once

the application has been installed, it can be run from the Windows Start menu

or from the icon on the desktop.

Connect the Raven XT-Rogers to a serial RS232 port on the PC with a direct

RS-232 cable. Also connect the antenna, and 12 V power.

Run AceManager to get the following screen:

Click the Connect icon in the Configuration Panel to open the connection

options dialogue box. Select PPP, and the COM port the modem is connected

to. Do not change the Password (the default password is 12345). Click OK to

continue.

If the modem has been configured for “PPP” (see appendix B), then you may

have to check the “Use SOS Mode” box.

Click the Load icon in the Configuration panel. When prompted for a template

file name, select the appropriate .xml file for the datalogger that you are using.

The template file configures the modem to be compatible with CSI dataloggers.
