This combination creates a new direction for message routing, display and logging. VisualPet allows new technologies to be bought to the remote sites including TCP/IP based protocols like SMTP (email), HTTP (web browser), TNPP via IP and remote login / management.
- Page 3 Iss: VPetNZFS 06/09 Additional Features The 15-15-8000 supports the use of a standard LCD display along with connections to four RS232 serial ports, one Ethernet port, two USB, Keyboard and mouse. The Ethernet port allows remote connection or the use or TCP/IP protocols for message reception or delivery.
- Page 4 Ethernet crossover cable or via connection across the NZFS IP network. The 15-15-8000 runs VNC as the remote desktop admin tool. The 15-15-8000 is factory configured with an IP of 192.168.1.150 and once VNC is connected the password of “salcom” will bring up the 15-15-8000 desktop.
