Operating the System Remotely C-3
Modem Selection
The RCM requires a Hayes-compatible modem. The controls that the RCM sends to
the modem have been selected to be acceptable to a wide selection of modems. The
modems that have been tested and qualified include:
Motorola LifeStyle Series 28.8
AT&T DATAPORT 14.4/FAX
Zoom Model 360
The U.S. Robotics Sportster DATA/FAX MODEM is also supported, but requires
some modification of the modem initialization and answer strings. See Section
C.1.7.
Modem Configuration Procedure
1. Connect a Hayes-compatible modem to the RCM as shown in Figure C-1, and
power up the modem.
2. From the local serial console terminal, enter the RCM firmware console by
typing the following escape sequence:
^]^]rcm
The character “^” is created by simultaneously holding down the Ctrl key and
pressing the ] key (right square bracket). The firmware prompt, RCM>, should
now be displayed.
3. Enter a modem password with the setpass command. See Section C.1.3.14.
4. Enable the modem port with the enable command. See Section C.1.3.5.
5. Enter the quit command to leave the RCM console.
6. You are now ready to dial in remotely.
