To test a network connection for proper setup after all work has been done:
1. Mouse click on Start.
2. Highlight Programs.
3. Scroll to MsDOS icon. Double mouse click.
4. A DOS window will appear. C:\windows > will be seen.
5. At the prompt, type: ping 192.168.0.9
If the network connections and protocols are working properly, there will be a response
time. Otherwise, the response will be a time-out. If there is a time-out, check the setup
again.
INSTALLING A REMOTE USER INTERFACE
One of the primary reasons for connecting a Courier to a network is to allow the ability to
remotely administer the system. To do this, once the networking is completed, the User
Interface program should be installed on the remote computer.
To install the User Interface on a computer, insert the CD into the CDROM drive. The
install program will automatically execute. Follow the install prompts by clicking the Next
button as needed. When asked for the type of install, choose ‘Typical’ installation.
Continue pressing the Next button as needed to complete the installation.
After installation is complete, the computer will reboot. You will now have a ‘PanaVOICE
Courier’ program group under your Start-Programs button. Click ‘Courier Startup’ in this
program group to begin using the User Interface.
The first time this program is started, you must tell it what the machine name and number
is of the Courier voice system as it appears on the network. You will be given a
Configuration Dialogue box to do this.
In the field labeled ‘IP address of the host machine’ you should enter 192.168.0.9 or the
appropriate IP number of the Courier voice system if it has been changed. Click the
‘Test’ button. If the TCP/IP settings and network configuration are correct, the system
should respond with ‘found a suitable connection.’ Any other response would indicate a
physical problem with the network or incorrect settings of the TCP/IP parameters on one
of the machines.
In the field labeled ‘UNC name of host machine’, click the drop down arrow and choose
the machine named ‘COURIER’. Again, click the test button and you should receive the
prompt ‘found a suitable network server.’
Once this is done, click the ‘Apply’ button and then the ‘OK’ button. You will be informed
that you must exit the Courier User Interface and restart it before the changes will take
effect. Close the program by clicking File-Exit and restart. You should now see the port
activity of the Courier voice system and be able to remotely administer the system just as
if you were at the voice machine.
