[REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS]

The

Direct Remote Communication

form is accessible by using the shortcut icon in the

GFS

Tools

program group or by using the

[Tools]

[Remote Communications]

menu choice in the

program. This tool provides a simple means of sending individual command strings to remote
devices and receiving and displaying the response.

Direct Remote Communications

is used

for discreet remote device communication and communications testing. Use this tool to
familiarize yourself with the device’s communications, for troubleshooting communications
problems and determining the appropriate commands to send prior to entering command
information into of the Remote Command Editor (see 5.5.3.4, Remote Command Editor). If a
command issued to a device does not give the desired result, refer to the device documentation
for information on how to troubleshoot the problem. Try cycling power on the device and also try
a command more than one time before concluding the command is in error.

DHI device COM2 options are not supported by the Direct Remote Communication form. To

test this functionality, manually set the device COM2 port to the RS232 settings of the device
connected to the COM2 port. Then send commands with the COM2 prefix required by the product.
In most cases, the prefix “#” will work. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance manual of the
specific product for details on the pass through support
