Step 2
– Creating a new Dial-Up Network connection
You now need to create a new DUN connection through which you can access your unit.
If you are planning to connect the unit directly to your PC for configuration purposes,
connect it to the appropriate COM port now using a suitable serial cable.
If you wish to configure a remote unit, make sure it is connected to a suitable ISDN line
and make a note of the ISDN number.
From the Windows Start menu, select
All Programs
>
Accessories
>
Communications
>
New Connection Wizard
. You will be presented with the New Connection Wizard
introduction screen. Click on
Next >
to proceed to the Network Connection Type dialog
box.
Select the

radio-button then click on
Next >
:
Select the
Dial-up connection
radio-button then click on
Next >
.
From the Select a Device dialog, select the unit you have just installed and make sure that
any other devices in the list are unchecked. Click
Next >
.
You must now enter a name for the connection. It is helpful to choose a name that you will
easily remember such as “My Local TA” or “TA2020B - Bristol Office”. Click
Next >
. The
next dialog allows you to fill in the phone number for the connection.
If the connection is being created for direct local access using a COM port, you should set
the phone number to 123. This number will be intercepted by the unit and recognised as
an attempt to connect locally.
If the connection is being created for remote access, enter the correct ISDN telephone
number (including the area code) for the remote unit.
When you have done this click
Next >
. The final dialog screen will confirm that the
connection has been created and includes a check box to allow you to create a shortcut
on your desktop if necessary. Click on
Finish
to complete the task.
