5 Modem connection (“or point to point
connection”)
It represents the most common method where the LAN (intranet /
Ethernet / internet) is not available.
It is strongly advised to use a dedicated telephone line.
IMPORTANT: Use exclusively modem devices approved by
Dixell.
Remember that many modems are not compatible with Linux.
The list of compatible models can be found under the menu:
Configuration – System - Modem.
External Modem
Connect the External Modem to the serial Port on the back side
using the modem cable commonly included into the modem
packaging itself.
The modem reset is directly controlled by the XWEB5000 Server
through the RS232 port by turning off and then on the modem
device.
Connect the modem to the telephone line with the phone cable
included into the modem packaging. Remember to check if there is
a switching machine.
The connection procedure is divided in two parts. In the first part it is
necessary to create the Remote Access, in your PC, set with the
telephone number of the line where the XWEB5000 is connected to.
You have to use Dixell as Username and Password.
The second is the procedure you will ever use: after launching the
new Remote Access that will engage the line through the modem,
start the Browser from your PC and insert the address
http://192.168.1.200 into Explorer/Netscape address bar.
