Customizing a RAS Dial-up Connection To customize a RAS dial-up (irregular or
toll-free use of long distance codes, and so on), use the same procedures and suggestions
as indicated in
Customizing a Dial-Up Connection to an Alarm Station , page 227 , and
International Dial-Up on page 230 .
Processing a Dial-up Callback
When a Rapid Eye Multi-Media unit uses telephone lines to communicate with a Multi alarm
station, the unit needs to use the alarm station’s PPP user name and password for dial-up
networking. After answering its modem, the alarm station must recognize the PPP user
name and password before the Multi-Media unit can access the View application.
Making an Alarm Station Operational
After adding an alarm station (see page 218 ), and defining how a Multi-Media unit connects
to it (see page 219 ):
• You need to update security for each Multi-Media unit involved. See Updating Security
on a Multi-Media Unit on page 143 .
• An alarm station is of little use if you have not set any events to trigger alarms. See
Events Defined on page 205 .
• Use the Update Site dialog box in the Admin application, to prioritize alarm stations.
See
Sequencing Site Alarm Stations on page 57 for more information.
• Operators of PCs not designated as alarm stations can also receive alarms sent by a
Multi-Media unit by running an Alarm session with the View application. To find out
how to run an Alarm session, see the
Rapid Eye™ Multi-Media Digital Video Recorder
Remote View Operator Guide .
