1.
Assigning a system
Name
– The Name field in the Remote Module is used for
identification purposes only and appears next to the software revision (see above).
This makes it easier for an administrator when managing multiple sites. Typically the
geographic location of the unit is input “Sally’s Home Office” for example. Any text up
to 15 characters can be input in this field.
2. Configuring
to
Use Gateway Time
– The log files for the Remote Module can be
stamped using the locally configured time or the time configured on the Switch
Module.
3. Setting
the
Gateway Time Offset
– Enter a value that represents the time difference
between the Switch Module and the Remote Module. This is used to compensate for
the time difference between cities. For example, if the Switch Module is at a corporate
office in Seattle and the Remote Module is at a branch office in New York set this
value to +3. This ensures that the log time stamp and the telephone display use the
correct time.
4. Changing
the
Console baud
– This is the speed at which information is transmitted to
and from the Switch Module through the console port labeled “COMM” on the back of
the unit. The baud rate can be changed to 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200 or 38400. The
default is 9600.
Advanced System Parameters – Administrator’s Password
An administrator’s password should be set to restrict unauthorized access to the Remote
Module. Individual port passwords are not affected.
