9.6.1 Making the data connection
Note
The iAssist help processes on your Tempus Pro may differ from this example iAssist help
process in the following sections. However, the process always follows the same key
elements.
Always ensure that you read the complete iAssist help process in order and do exactly what
it requires’
Press the button on the touch screen to get instructions on how to setup and make
the data connection. Note that these instructions will appear by default every time you turn
the unit on.
Once the data connection process has been completed, press the Dial Data button to start the data
connection process.
Note
These instructions are provided in iAssist format – see “9.7 iAssist processes”.
In the event that an alarm occurs, the Tempus will immediately revert back to the Home
screen so that the alarm condition can be seen.
Note
The instructions shown above are examples, the on-screen instructions may differ
depending on what Connection Mode the Tempus Pro is in. Users are reminded to read
and follow the instructions on screen paying attention to both the written instructions and the
graphics which show how to perform different elements of the task.
If the Response Centre cannot be contacted, this could be due to errors in the way that the connection has
been attempted. Help will be given in the form of an iAssist help process, follow the instructions given and
wait for a few minutes before trying again. For Troubleshooting information, see “11.5 Troubleshooting”.
If the Tempus cannot connect to the Response Centre first time, it will automatically make a number of redial
attempts (typically 3). The system will indicate the redial process by displaying a number over the Data Link
status indicator.
