Appendix B. Configuring the Raven
Modem for PPP
Settings in the Raven and datalogger (CR800, CR1000, and CR3000), can be
changed to configure the RS-232 serial ports for Point-to-Point protocol (PPP).
When configured as PPP, the Raven functions as a router, routing TCP/IP
communications to the IP stack of the datalogger. PPP enables the datalogger
to send/receive messages via email, HTTP, FTP to and from the datalogger,
and allows concurrent communications between networked dataloggers and
LoggerNet .
The default datalogger port number for PakBus/TCP communications is 6785.
The datalogger will also respond to port 80 for HTTP, 23 for Telnet, and 21 for
FTP. These ports can be disabled in the datalogger’s configuration.
The
Device Port
configured in the RavenXTV (shown in
DevConfig screen below) should not use any of the port numbers
configured in the datalogger settings. It is recommended to leave
the Device Port set to 3001 .
Connect to the modem with DevConfig and go to the Settings tab. Enable PPP
and click Apply . Reboot the modem for the new settings to take effect.
Datalogger Settings:
Using DevConfig , configure the following setting on the PPP tab:
•
Config Port Used = RS-232
•
IP Address = 0.0.0.0
• Modem Dial String = PPP
