Operating the Model
2010D
Remotely using Terminal Mode
Once the Model
2010D
and all modems, computers and cables are
configured correctly, it is simple matter to establish a
communications link and operate the Model
2010D
remotely. The
Model
2010D
can sense that a communications link is active by
monitoring the DSR line. When a connection is sensed (e.g. when
the modem answers the phone or a cable is attached), the Model
2010D
will present the following log-in message:
Sabio Model
2010D
Dilution Calibrator Remote Access
Press any key to continue ...
Simply pressing a key will log into the Model
2010D
and an exact
image of the Model
2010D
's front panel display will be presented
on the remote computer's screen. Subsequently pressing keys,
either on the front panel or at the remote computer, will cause
both screens to respond accordingly.
If command mode is enabled and a command is sent, the
2010D
automatically switches to command mode. Pressing the ESC key
will return the
2010D
to terminal mode.
Most keys on the remote computer's keyboard correspond to
equivalent keys on the Model
2010D
's front panel, however there
are a few exceptions, which are listed below.
