Connecting remotely to a Norstar system
With this configuration, your computer connects to the RAD by using a dial-up modem and a
dial-up connection to an auto-answered line on the Norstar system.
When you click on the
Connect
button on an ICSRT Connection Properties screen that is correctly
set for Remote connection (
“Connecting to a Norstar system” on page 51
), your computer dials the
Norstar system using the modem. The line your computer dials through is set up on the Norstar
system so that the RAD answers after a specified number of rings. When the RAD answers,
ICSRT transmits the RAD password, which is entered on the connection record. If the RAD
recognizes the password, the connection occurs.
