Set-Up the Host Modemulator
The Modemulator defaults to peer-to-peer mode, which allows the
host
Modemulator to initiate a
connection to any
remote
Modemulator or any
remote
Modemulator to initiate a connection to the
host
Modemulator.
The Modemulator that interfaces to the
host
application software must be configured as required by the
software with the same settings as a dial-up modem. The application software may automatically send
initialization commands to the modem, or may require the modem to be pre-configured. Consult the
application software User Guide for any requirements for pre-configuring the attached modem.
If the application software User Guide is not available, modem configuration settings can normally
be read directly from the dial-up modem. See the modem User Guide for details. Those settings
can then be referenced when pre-configuring the Modemulator.
Choose an arbitrary phone number for each
remote
Modemulator. For drop-in compatibility with the
host
software, use the phone numbers that the
host
software is already programmed to dial. Program the
host
Modemulator’s dialing directory
with the static IP address of each
remote
Modemulator and the
corresponding phone number.
Disconnect the dial-up modem from the application hardware serial port, and connect the Modemulator to
the application hardware serial port. The application hardware will now use the Modemulator for all
communications.
