• Direct Connection This is for a 'simple' point to point hardwired serial connection.
• Radio Connection This utilises a simplex radio modem link as the communication medium.
• PSTN modem This requires an approved modem such as the Maestro Woomera, configured for PSTN dial up and
uses either a PABX or PSTN dial up line connection as the communication medium.
• Leased Line This requires an approved modem such as the Maestro Woomera, configured for either two wire or
four wire leased line connection as the communication medium.
• Mobile This requires an approved modem such as the Maestro Woomera, configured for PSTN dial up and uses a
Mobile phone dial up line connection as the communication medium.
Host Phone Number
( only applicable when using a PSTN connection )
This is the phone number that the RCU will use when it dials the modem to communicate with SENTINEL. Prefix the
number with 'T' if tone dialing is available.
Site Phone Number
( only applicable when using a PSTN connection )
This is the phone number that SENTINEL will use when it dials the modem to communicate with the RCU. Prefix the
number with 'T' if tone dialing is available.
Site Modem Initialisation
( only applicable when using a PSTN connection )
This is the initialisation string that the RCU will use when it initialises the remote modem.
This is stored at the RCU end. The default is 'z' which resets the modem. Normally, no changes are required.
Site Cfg Date/Time Stamp
This is created automatically by SENTINEL when the configuration data is 'applied' to the database. It is used by
SENTINEL to determine the potential validity of its configuration data compared to the configuration data stored in the
RCU.
Apply
This function applies the changes back to the configuration database. All changes made since entering the site
configuration window, or since the last 'Apply' will be written to the configuration database.
Note: Any changes applied cannot be undone unless the individually parameter is edited then applied back to the database. This
function does not update the RCU, only the configuration database. ( see Site Configuration )
