3 Installation on the iSeries
3.1 Preparations for initial installation
The installation of MidJet GSM Text software is highly automated and will
normally require less than two hours of work. All parts of communication,
subsystem and other objects required are created automatically by the
installation program or by the product itself when used. All configuration
related files are also delivered with as much information as possible already
in place.
Before installation you must decide upon method to connect to the GSM
network(s). MidJet GSM Text supports:
 Connection via a supported GSM module attached to a V24 line or
attached via a W&T TCP/IP Communication Server. Outgoing to GSM
phones as well as incoming messages from GSM phones are supported.
 Dial-up direct connection via an asynchronous modem using the AT
command set, connected to a V.24 communications line and to a
telephone line. This connection type supports outgoing (from the iSeries
to GSM telephones) messages only.
 Connection via TCP/IP. Availability depends on the support from the
GSM operator. Provides bidirectional message transfer.
MidJet GSM Text supports connections to multiple GSM network operators
using different connection methods.
The preferred method depends on required functionality and availability of a
communication line, data communication and GSM network charges.
Installation from one iSeries to another via a communication link is
supported. See chapter 9 for description of the Remote Install function.
