User`s manual
configure the remote access to the SP1200A using a modem. The meaning of
each parameter will be described below. The modem settings are part of the
serial settings panel.
Parameter Description
Serial line speed
The speed the SP1200A is communicating with the modem.
Most of all modems available today will support the default
value of 115200 bps. In case you are using an old modem
and discovering problems try to lower this speed.
Modem Init String
The initialization string used by the SP1200A to initialize the
modem. The default value will work with all modern standard
modems directly connected to a telephone line. In case you
have a special modem or the modem is connected to a local
telephone switch that requires a special dial sequence in
order to establish a connection to the public telephone
network, you can change this setting by giving a new string.
Modem server IP
address
This IP address will be assigned to the SP1200A itself during
the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection
virtually every IP address is possible but you must make sure,
it is not interfering with the IP settings of the SP1200A and
your console computer. The default value will work in most
cases.
Modem client IP
address
This IP address will be assigned to your console computer
during the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP
connection virtually every IP address is possible but you must
make sure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of the
SP1200A and your console computer. The default value will
work in most cases.
Pass Through Access to Serial Port via Telnet
Using this option, it is possible to connect an arbitrary device to the serial port
and access (assuming it provides terminal support) via Telnet. Select the
appropriate options for the serial port and use the Telnet Console, or a
standard Telnet client to connect to the SP1200A.
