CONFIGURING THE COMPUTER CONNECTION
The first step in configuring LaserNET is to specify the type of connection to the computer.
1. Select
Setup>System Computer>Configure
from the main screen. The System Configuration win-
dow opens, as shown in Figure 3-1.
Figure 3-1. System Configuration Window
2. Select an available serial communications port (such as COM1 or COM2) from the serial port box. To
help make a selection, see the documentation that was provided with the computer.
3. Select the type of connection in the Connection box. Choose Local IIM if the configuration is like that
shown in Figure 1-2 with the personal computer and IIM connected via RS-232 cable. The Remote IIM
configuration is also shown in Figure 1-2 with the telephone line between the computer and the IIM.
Select Direct Detector if the configuration is the same as is shown in Figure 1-1.
4. If a specific modem initialization string is required, enter it in the Modem Initialization String field. The
initialization string is only used when communicating in the Remote IIM connection mode. The docu-
mentation provided with the modem will provide the required or default initialization string for individual
types of modems.
5. Select Metres or Feet. Unless selected otherwise, the system will automatically default to Metres. If
Feet is chosen, a message window will appear requesting the user to quit LaserNET and re-launch the
program.
6. Select
<OK>
to save the entries and close the screen. If Remote IIM was selected, the software will
look for the modem.
To save the configuration, LaserNET must be closed and restarted.
Configuration for a Local IIM, Remote IIM and Direct Connection is complete. A Remote IIM connection
requires further configuration, as described next.
