Setting stations to Point-
to-point mode
First connection – Point to Point communication
The AMS-8061 station is equipped with a GSM/GPRS modem and is
initially set, at the factory, for FTP communication mode.
Stations set for FTP communication are intended to be configured by
means of the user's FTP server through the Internet connection but can be
accessed, locally, by connecting the RS232, USB or Ethernet cable.
Some commands, specially related to the modem activity, are not enabled
for the real time setting that can be done in wired serial connections, if the
station is set for FTP communication.
The first connection may take place either via modem or via direct RS232
or USB or Ethernet connection. The direct connection is much faster and
the first connection must be make in this way even if the subsequent
operations will be done via 4G modem.
AMS-8061 is equipped with an USB port which can be connected to the PC
through the supplied USB cable.
