Modem Type Uplinks:
Inmarsat MPDS, GPRS, GSM, Analog modem, Globalstar,
etc. View or Edit the following fields as necessary:
Connection Name – a name that is used for selecting this
►
uplink in the future.
Phone Number – the required dial-up number for the uplink
►
service.
Username and Password. (Note that some devices will not
►
dial unless you put something into these fields, even
though your uplink service provider might not require a
login).
Init String – any AT initialisation commands required by the
►
uplink service (if required the uplink service provider can
provide this information).
Extra Init String – any AT initialisation commands required
►
before the uplink service begins (if required the uplink
service provider can provide this information).
Inactivity Timeout (in seconds) – the Wired Ocean service
►
will automatically disconnect if no uplink activity is detected
for the period of time selected.
Port – the physical connector on the SBS that the device
►
will connect to. RS232 is the 15 pin d-type connector. USB
is the small rectangular connector. The "Port" drop down
menu shows where the device is connected to your SBS
(RS232 Serial Port, First USB Port, Second USB Port, etc.)
Baud rate – the data rate between the SBS and the uplink
►
device in bits per second (e.g. 115200 is 115200 bits per
second). This is determined by the type of connection
used. Normally 115200 or sometimes 57600.
Flow control – (or RS232 RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF) for the
►
serial interface to the uplink hardware should normally be
set to 'Auto' (where the SBS automatically selects software
flow control except for Globalstar and analogue modems
where it selects hardware flow control). If you wish to
install an uplink device that does not seem to be reacting
correctly to the SBS please check the RS232 flow control
that is recommended for your selected uplink device (it
should be indicated in the relevant user manual).
