DETECTORS

Doc. No.

667/HB/31900/000

7 HANDSET INTERFACE

7.1 Terminal (Emulator) and a Cable Serial Interface

Either a PC or a PDA, in conjunction with appropriate terminal software

, may be used

as a terminal.

The terminal (either PC or PDA) should be connected to the Serial Interface connector

on the detector using a suitable serial interface cable (667/1/31962/000).

The Detector communicates at 19200 baud using 8 data bits with no parity bit, one stop

bit (8,N,1) and no ‘Flow Control’.

When the Terminal is connected and the ‘return’, ‘enter’ or ‘CR/LF’ key pressed a

number of times ‘SIEMENS’ should be displayed together with a prompt character ‘>’

indicating that the terminal has been recognised and is awaiting a user commend.

The user command tables can be found in section 7.7.

7.2 Siecom and a Wireless / Cable Serial Interface

The Heimdall detector can be accessed by a wireless device using the SIEMENS

Siecom Terminal application (part number 667/1/30875/000).

The following instructions assume the Siecom software has been installed on a PC or

PDA, as required. For detailed Siecom installation details please refer to the Siecom

users Handbook (reference section 0).

It is recommended that the appropriate Heimdall detector Equipment Definition File

(EDF - 667/YK/31977/001) has been installed in order to enable access to all

appropriate handset commands.

Example terminal software for PC would be Hyperterm and for a PDA ZTerm.
