7.3.2.6. REMOTE ACCESS BY MODEM
The M100E can be connected to a modem for remote access. This requires a cable between the analyzer’s
COM port and the modem, typically a DB-9F to DB-25M cable (available from Teledyne API with P/N
WR0000024).
Once the cable has been connected, check to ensure that the DTE-DCE is in the correct position. Also ensure
that the M100E COM port is set for a baud rate that is compatible with the modem, which needs to operate with
an 8-bit word length with one stop bit.
The first step is to turn on the MODEM ENABLE communication mode (Mode 64, Section 7.1.9). Once this is
compl
e
ted, the appropriate setup command line for your modem can be entered into the analyzer. The default
setting for this feature is:
AT Y0 &D0 &H0 &I0 S0=2 &B0 &N6 &M0 E0 Q1 &W0
This string can be altered to match your modem’s initialization and can be up to 100 characters long.
To change this setting, access the COMM Menu (refer to Figure 7-1), then press:
SETUP X.X COM1 MODEM INIT:AT Y

SETUP X.X COM1 MODE:0

SETUP X.X COM1 BAUD RATE:19200
<SET SET> EDIT EXIT
ENTR accepts the
new string and returns
to the previous menu.
EXIT ignores the new
string and returns to
the previous menu.
The <CH and CH> keys move
the [ ] cursor left and right
