Modem Port Assignment
If there is only one TAP Modem device in the 800xA system, no TAP Modem port
assignment is necessary. The configured TAP modem for SMS and e-mail
Messaging is initially "First Available Modem".
However, to configure a specific TAP modem to be used by SMS and e-mail
Messaging, a configuration step must be performed on the node where the
Messenger Service is running. The utility TapModemCfg provides the mechanism
for selecting a specific TAP modem. This utility program lists the TAP modem
devices detected by Microsoft's TAPI (Telephony API) and allows the user to
configure the specific device to be used by SMS and Email messaging. Using
Windows Explorer navigate to:
…\Program Files\ABB Industrial IT\Operate IT\Messenger\bin and launch
TapModemCfg.exe.
The TapModemCfg dialog in Figure 91 illustrates a sample configuration.
The parameters of the General tab and the Advanced tab are the most common
used by TAP providers, however specific setting should be verified with the
provider as they may be different and are subject to change.
If the communication settings are changed after the Modem Device has been
configured to use the port, the machine must be rebooted for the new settings to
take affect.
