Utilities - Dial Site / Hangup Site
Dial Site: tells the local RTU to dial a
remote RTU (1-249). The local RTU will dial
the phone number configured for that
remote RTU in Configuration, Phone
Directory. The port that is used for dialing
is defined by the network link for that
remote RTU.
Hangup Site: tells the local RTU hangup
the PSTN modem on port 1-16.
Utilities - Carrier Test
A carrier test will force the specified radio or
private line port (1-16) to transmit for a
number of seconds (1-999). A carrier test
will not operate on serial ports. A carrier test
is very useful when wanting to test the radio
signal strength received from a remote
RTU. By forcing the remote RTU to transmit
continuously for say 60 seconds, the RX
power at the local RTU can be measured.
This also identifies which RTU is
transmitting since the other remote RTUs
will be locked out during the transmission.
Caution! Radio carrier tests should not
be longer than 60 seconds in order to
prevent overheating and damage to the
radio.
