Modem
Multi-Media units can use a telephone line to connect to the modem of an alarm station, or
its RAS server. Telephone lines can be either a plain old telephone system (POTS), or
higher speed integrated services digital network (ISDN). You also need to know the
telephone number to reach that modem.
Microsoft Windows
To send alarms over a dial-up connection, you will need to obtain a point-to-point protocol
(PPP) username and password for the PC used as an alarm station, or for its RAS server,
from their Microsoft Windows operating system. See
