On the main 'Dial-up Networking' screen double-click on the new icon
"FP Web-Server null modem cable"
2.
Enter the name and password as defined in the FP Web-Server
configuration (see above)
The 'dial-up' process can take a few seconds. Upon a successful
connection an icon is displayed in the system status bar.
To disconnect later, click on this icon and select 'Disconnect'.
3.
Use a standard Internet browser that is set up as described under
Internet Browser to Test the FP Web-Server (see p. 37)
4.
In the location field the IP address of the PPP server can be entered,
e.g. http://192.168.206.4 (see FP Web-Server settings under PPP
server (see p. 130))
The page "MAIN.HTM" as set up with the Configurator should be
displayed.
Windows XP setup for IP communication via RS232C null modem cable:
Create a new “direct connection”:
1.
Start
Control Panel
Network and Dial-up Connections
Make New Connection
2.
Click [Next] and select “Connect directly to another computer”. Click
[Next].
3.
Select “Guest” to define the PPP client. Click [Next].
4.
At “Select a device:” locate the “Communication cable between two
computers (COMx)”. Click [Next].
Comment:
COMx, i.e. the computer's RS232C COM port, should be used for the
null modem cable. Perhaps the proper COM port number will not be
found because it is already used by an installed modem driver. If
necessary, remove the common modem driver (see “Control Panel /
Telephone and Modem”). Especially under Windows XP, this COM Port
may not be configured for any other modem.
5.
Select “For all users”. Click [Next].
6.
Enter a name for this connection. For example “Null modem with COM1
and 19200bps to PPP server”. Click [Finish]
