Modem Baud Rate
Click on the arrow of the pull-down to select different modem baud rates. The baud rate will be
negotiated at power-up. Normally there will be no reason to change the baud rate. The baud rate may be
reduced if there are problems at the higher speed due to poor signal conditions.
Maximum PPP MTU Size
Normally the PPP MTU packet size will be negotiated with the cell service. Some services require a
manual setting of a smaller size. Type this in the text box if necessary.
Network Settings
Primary and Secondary DNS IP Address
These text boxes contain the address of a valid Domain Name Server, which allows the WebAlert to
send the emails using the name of the email server rather than the numeric SMTP IP address. The DNS
IP addresses should never need to be changed, unless the server is experiencing problems.
Ethernet MAC Address
This field displays the MAC address of the Ethernet circuit, in case it is needed by the network IT
administrator to identify the controller.
Gateway Port (only for VNet Activations)
Type the desired VNet port in the text box. This will normally not change from the default port of 1194.
Sub-Network Settings (only appears if the controller has master networking activated)
Mapped Internet IP Address
If you are accessing the master process monitor by using NAT to translate a real IP address to a fake IP
address, then type the real IP address into this field of the master process monitor.
Direct Modem Connection (Point-to-Point)
Minimum required direct modem rings
The modem will answer after 4-9 rings. The default value is 7. If this is a problem because the phone
system will not allow that many rings, type the new number into the text box.
Browser Settings
Java/Non-Java
If you are using Internet Explorer 7.0 or higher, or Mozilla Firefox, then Non Java should be selected.
Check the radio button for Java to use Java for viewing live data. The choice depends upon the browser
you will use. Java should only be selected if you are using Internet Explorer 5.0 or 6.0. You will need to
have the Java Virtual Machine plug-in installed (available at www.java.com).
