4-20 Configuring ASMi-52 System Parameters ASMi-52 Ver. 2.5
To configure the security timeout:
1. From the Terminal menu, select Security Timeout (Main menu >
Configuration > System Configuration > Control Port > Port Control >
Terminal > Security Timeout) to configure the timeout: FOREVER (timeout is
disabled) or 10 MIN (idle disconnect time – 10 min).
The display is refreshed and a new value appears.
2. Select Save to save the changes.
To change the dial-out parameters:
When the CONTROL port is configured to the dial out mode, you must specify
the dial-out parameters of the port. This enables ASMi-52 to build the call
command that is sent to the dial-out modem. When connecting the dial-out
modem, you must use a cross cable (see Appendix A for the cross cable pinout).
The modem connected to the CONTROL connector must be set up as follows (for
convenience, the Hayes commands required to select the specified parameters are
listed in brackets):
• Auto-answer mode (AT S0=1 and AT S1=1)
• Call set up in response to the CONNECT string (AT X0)
• No echo (AT E0)
• Verbose mode (no codes, e.g., CONNECT string instead of 0) (AT V1).
1. From the Port Control menu (see Figure 4-22), select Dial out (Main menu >
Configuration > System Configuration > Control Port > Port Control > Port
Control Mode > Dial Out).
The Dial Out menu appears (see Figure 4-26).
2. From the Dial Out menu, type the following:
1 to instruct ASMi-52 to report all alarms (ALL), only major ones (MAJOR),
or disable alarm reporting (NONE).
2 to specify the number of dialing retries. 0, no redialing attempts are made
if the call is not established on the first attempt. 1–8, if the call is not
established on the first attempt, ASMi-52 makes the specified number of
redials.
This parameter applies to both primary and alternate numbers:
If the call is not established after dialing the primary directory number
the specified number of times, ASMi-52 attempts to establish the call by
dialing the alternate directory number (provided the use of an alternate
number is enabled).
If the call is not established within the specified number of redialing
attempts on neither of the two directory numbers, ASMi-52 stops the
call attempts. When a new alarm report must be sent, the call attempts
are started again. The user is notified that the call attempts failed by a
message recorded in the alarm log file (separate messages are provided
for each directory number).
