Performance Notes
All images over the PPP connection will be grayscale to conserve bandwidth. If
other users are connected while a PPP session is active, their screens will be in
grayscale as well. When PPP is inactive, color is automatically re-enabled.
Some areas of the screen may not be updated as frequently as others, and
animations or other auto-updating areas of the screen may appear out-of-focus
or “blocky” as a result. Since the area around the mouse pointer is refreshed most
frequently, hold the pointer over an area to improve its clarity.
It may be benecial to minimize any unnecessary icons, backgrounds, or other
clutter on the host computer’s desktop to make the dial-up connection as ecient
as possible.
If you need to congure the device over a serial connection while the modem
option is enabled, connect a serial cable and begin a terminal session following the
instructions under Terminal Conguration Using a Serial Cable in this manual. Once
connected, you will see the following message:
Expecting a modem, if human, type admin password (Or start PPP)
Type the password for user admin and press Enter. The password will not appear on the
screen. The conguration menu will appear. Make the changes you wish or press q and
Enter to exit and leave the modem connection active.
