Modem Configuration - Lindy Switch User Manual

Modem configuration

This page allows you to
configure the COM1 serial
port located at the rear of
the LINDY KVM IP.
Server IP / Client IP
When a user dials into the LINDY KVM IP via a modem or ISDN adapter, the
LINDY KVM IP sets up a temporary two-device network using PPP (Point to Point
Protocol). For this purpose, both devices must have 'dummy' IP addresses so that
they can communicate correctly. These two addresses can be almost anything
expressed in the quad octet format (i.e. 192.168.3.1.). However, it is advisable
not to make them the same as the real IP addresses used by either the remote
system or the LINDY KVM IP.
Baud Rate
This option configures the speed of the serial connection between the LINDY
KVM IP and a connected modem or ISDN terminal adapter. The default setting is
115200. The other communication settings are fixed as: No parity, 8 bit word, 1
stop bit.

2 Press (hotkeys may be different).
3 Select 'Configuration'.

Init String
The codes entered here are used to prepare the connected modem or ISDN
terminal adapter for use with the LINDY KVM IP. The default code is a Hayes-
compatible string to configure auto answer mode and would be understood by
the vast majority of modem/ISDN devices. The code is sent when the LINDY KVM
IP is first switched on or whenever the Initialize button is clicked.
Initialize Port
When selected, this option sends the characters entered in the 'Init string' field
to the connected modem or ISDN terminal adapter.
Restore Defaults
When selected, this option resets the 'Baud rate' and 'Init string' values to their
original default settings.
