c) Set individual parameters (
only on ECM-GW120 with WipSoft
)
In the top of the device window open the path "
Parameters
" > "
Terminal interface
" and then select
"
GSM und GPRS
".
On the right-hand side of the window you will now see several values, in which the following must be
entered:
Value
Input
GPRS Access Point Name "APN"
These values vary according to the SIM card and VPN (Virtual
Private Network) in use. The values to be entered can normally
be obtained from your IT department or SIM card provider.
"Port" means the TCP port no. of the retrieval system in use.
APN Username "UName"
APN Password "PwAPN"
GPRS Port Address "Port"
i
If you fail to input an Access Point Name (APN), the APN that is saved on the SIM is used. Since
this is usually a public APN (no access to a VPN) and since a dynamic IP address is allocated
when a GPRS session with a public APN is set up, the TCP server function cannot be used! This
is because a static IP address would be needed for this purpose. In such a case, the modem
could only be used as TCP client.
Attention: Without the input of an APN there is the risk that unspecified costs may be incurred, as
with every set up through a GPRS provider and based on a corresponding tariff a minimum data
volume (e.g., 10 or 100 kB) will be billed!
Press the "
Transfer changes to device
" icon at the top of the enSuite window.
If required (i.e. with the aid of the enSuite user list) two further addresses for a "Domain Name
System" can be entered in addresses 3:0794.0 and 3:0795.0. This is however not essential.
d) Set individual parameters (
Integra M2106 only
)
On this GPRS modem the VPN access data are not parameterized in the EK280, but in the GPRS
modem see Section 7.3.5.2 "Parameterization of the GPRS/TCPserv modems in the FE260", page
91).
e) Setting time window for potential data retrievals
In the base configuration now displayed you can define time windows, during which data can be cyclically
retrieved from the EK280 via the modem. Time windows 5 and 6 are reserved for EK280 operation with an
FE260, and generally only time window 5 is used. Redundant time windows can be deactivated by setting the
time window start and end to the same value.
In the top of the device window open the path "
Parameters
" > "
Interfaces
" by clicking on the relevant
plus signs, and then select "
Call time windows
".
For call window 5, set the start to "00:00" and the end to "23:59" and then select the "Transfer
changes to device" icon at the top of the enSuite window.
Finally, turn the FE260 power supply back on.
Wait for around a minute for the EK280 to detect the FE260.
Check whether appropriate bars indicating the signal level for the external modem ("e") appear on
the main display of the EK280.
