After connecting the serial cable, you can start communications and, if successful,
log on to begin programming.
To connect using Kermit :
1. Type cd c :\kermit (or the appropriate directory).
2. Type Kermit and press ↵ ↵ ↵ ↵ . The version of Kermit should appear, followed by the
Kermit prompt (Kermit-MS>).
– For file uploads and downloads, check that the version is V2.29b.
3. At the Kermit prompt, type set port 1 or set port 2 to select PC serial port to
which the serial cable is attached.
4. At the Kermit prompt, type set baud 9600 or the baud rate required. The INDeX
supports 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200
baud.
5. At the Kermit prompt, type C (for connect) and press ↵ ↵ ↵ ↵ .
6. Press ↵ ↵ ↵ ↵ again. If there is no response or a garbled response, you may need to
change the baud rate being used.
7. If okay, INDeX Administration and Username > _ should appear, see page 12.
You may need to issue commands to the Kermit program rather than to the INDeX.
You can do this without ending the programming session.
To switch between Kermit and INDeX commands :
1. Press Ctrl and ] simultaneously. Then press C.
2. Enter the Kermit commands required (e.g. set baud or set port).
3. Type C and press ↵ to return to the programming session.
The INDeX includes an integrated modem. The modem supports 33.6KB and is set
to auto-answer. When enabled, the modem disables use of serial port 4 on the
control cabinet.
To set up the integrated modem :
1. From the Administration menu, select System and then Facility options.
2. Select Integrated modem enabled to switch the option between yes and no.
3. From the Administration menu, select Directory, then General set up and
then Reserved numbers.
4. The Modem number is the group number for calls to the integrated modem.
5. DDI or other routing methods can now be used to route calls to the modem's
group number.
