A PC can control multiple RollCall networks by connecting via RollProxy.

Configuring IP Parameters
You must configure the Gateways IP parameters before you can connect to the Gateway
using IP over Ethernet. To do this you must establish a connection to the Gateway using a
different communications interface.
In each case you need a PC with the RollCall control software installed. You can connect the
PC to the Gateway in one of three ways:
•
RollNet
•
Serial
•
IP Crossover Cable
RollNet
If the PC is connected to an existing RollNet network, you can set the Gateway to an unused
unit address, add it to the RollNet network and connect to it via RollNet.
Serial
You can connect any PC with an RS-232 serial (COM) port to the Gateway. By default the
Gateway ships configured for RS-232 at 38400 baud. Connect the PC COM to the 9-way
D-type labeled “Remote” on the rear of the 3U enclosure. In the Commtrol window on the PC,
go to File | Configure Comms.
Select Serial Port, select the correct COM port and set the Baud rate to 38400. You should
now be able to connect to the Gateway.
