11. Remote Monitoring

ASE2000 version 2 release 2.16 and later adds the ability to monitor communication in a remote
SPT or ASE Terminal server.
• The SPT product line includes the SPT-PC, SPT4-NET, and SPT-ARM. Remote monitoring is
supported in SPT software release x.6.y or later (i.e., the middle digit must be at least 6)
• The Terminal Server product line must be based on an ARM processor. Older Pentium based
processor solutions do not support remote monitoring
Remote monitoring allows the ASE2000 to make a network connection with any remote SPT
or Terminal Server package with compatible software support and to display data just as if the
ASE2000 were located at the remote site. Only non-intrusive monitoring operation is supported.
No message transmission can be initiated in this mode.
Non-intrusive terminal server hardware can be purchased for installation at remote locations
to provide remote monitoring connectivity. These units can be configured as listening only to
alleviate security concerns.

11.1. Activation

Remote monitoring requires activation at both the remote (SPT) site and at the local ASE2000.
11.1.1. SPT Remote Monitoring Configuration
SPT activation is accomplished through the SPT Editor, provided as part of the SPT package.
From the editor, select the Remote Monitor option from the SPT pull-down.
To provide a selection list of all possible communication channels/ports into the SPT.
In this example, the SPT is configured to report data to the master over DNP3 LAN/WAN IP
port 20000. After selecting the "Monitor" option, this communication traffic will be reported to a
remote ASE2000 over port 3000. This is the default and can be changed.
