Installation
Step 1: Plug it in
To begin “installing” a USB modem, plug it into the AcquiSuite or AcquiLite DAS's USB port.
No modem drivers are needed, and the AcquiSuite/AcquiLite DAS fully supports hot-plugging of USB devices.
When the AcquiSuite/AcquiLite DAS detects the modem, it should display a message on its LCD, similar to this:
The actual message may vary a bit because the description (“USB Modem”) is loaded from the USB modem itself.
Note: USB Hubs
Obvius recommends against using USB hubs if they can be avoided, as they add another point-of-failure to the system.
Step 2: Configure the Modem
For this and the following steps you must use a PC to browse to the web “user-interface” of the AcquiSuite or AcquiLite
DAS. The DAS's current IP address is shown on its LCD, and can be changed via the LCD menu. (Exact details of how to
do this are covered in the DAS' Installation Manual.)
To setup the modem, browse to the DAS's “Modem Setup” page, which should appear as follows:
If the modem type doesn't match the modem you connected, press “Scan for New Modem”, confirm that the modem found
is correct, and press “Apply”. This action tells the AcquiSuite/AcquiLite DAS what modem it should expect to use.
