Configuring a Remote Modem:

TS Adapter. These are data for initializing the modem and settings for the serial
transfer between the TS Adapter and the modem.
The data are specified during the configuration of the TS Adapter. This is described
below.
Note
• The parameters for the modem and the serial interface preset in the
TS Adapter should ensure successful operation in most cases, so that re-
configuration will only be required in rare cases.
• Re-configuration of the TS Adapter is only necessary if a modem connection is
not established or if works settings have to be adapted or optimized.
• The TS Adapter can be reconfigured over a direct connections or a remote
connection.
