4 Using the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter With a Modem This chapter describes how to connect a modem to the i.LON 10 Ethernet adapter and how to configure the PPP web page to allow the i.LON 10 to dial-out, accept incoming calls, and respond to shoulder-tap. i.
Connecting The i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter to a Modem You can connect the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter to an analog, GSM, or ISDN modem using a standard DB-9 – DB-25 straight though modem cable. You must use a straight through modem cable to connect the i.LON 10 to the Modem. A crossover cable will not work. In order to for a modem to communicate with the i.LON 10, it must support all of the following signals: Tx, Rx, GND, RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR and CD.
This Web page contains the following options: Serial Port Baud Rate The speed of communications on the DB-9 serial port. The i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter supports rates of 9600 bps, 19200 bps, 38400 bps, and 56700 bps. The serial bit rate should equal the bit rate of the attached modem. Local IP Address for Incoming Calls Set the IP address that will be assigned to incoming calls by the i.LON 100 server. By default, this is the IP address of the i.LON 10 incremented by one (e.g. if the IP address of the i.
made to the first profile, the second will be tried. The i.LON 10 will alternate between profiles until a connection is established or until the number of retries specified by Number of Retries to Use when Attempting Outbound PPP Connection Attempts on the Security Configuration Web page has been reached. Each profile contains the following options: Username The username to be used by the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter when connecting to an ISP. This name can be up to 63 characters.
Setting this value to 0 disables the idle timeout (i.e. the connection will stay open indefinitely). Modem Init String The initialization string sent to the modem before each connection attempt. Use this field to insure that the modem’s baud rate matches the value set in Serial Port Baud Rate. The Modem Init String for Profile 1 is sent on the serial port each time the i.LON 10 is reset. You do not need to enter “AT” before each member of the init string (i.e.
If this checkbox is cleared, this information will be set by the ISP. Submit Click to close this page, write the configuration changes to FLASH memory, and reset the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter. Configuration changes will take effect upon reboot. Configuring the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter for Dial-out The i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter can be configured to dial-out when it needs to form an uplink communication with the LNS Server. To configure the i.
Troubleshooting Dial-out Problems If you are having trouble getting the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter to connect to an ISP, perform the following tests: Test the Modem To test the modem, follow these steps: 1. Connect the modem to your computer’s serial port using the straight-through modem cable used to connect the i.LON 10 to the modem. 2. Open HyperTerminal. Assure that the scroll lock is turned off on your computer (if it is on, press the button to turn it off).
ii. Type “AT” in capital letters and press . The modem should respond with “OK”. If the modem does not respond, repeat this step several times. If you cannot get a response, verify that the modem is turned on. iii. If you still get no response, watch the LEDs on the modem when you enter ‘AT”. If they do not flicker, the modem is not responding the command. This could be due to any of the following: • Wrong type of modem cable being used. Confirm that you are using a straight through cable.
1. On the computer attached to the modem, dial the ISP. In HyperTerminal, type “ATDT 555-1234” (replace 555-1234 with the phone number supplied by your ISP for POP connections. Be sure to include an prefixes needed to get an outside line. A comma may be used to force a short pause (e.g. “ATDT 9,555-1234”). You should hear a dial tone, then dialing, and a high-pitched whistling when the ISP’s modem picks up. You may or may not see anything on your HyperTerminal display (this varies by ISP).
the host. This should force the i.LON 10 to dial-out. Watch the modem LEDs for activity and listen for dial tone, ringing, and connection: • If the modem LEDs do not flash, the i.LON 10 is probably not communicating with the modem. • If the LEDs flash, but the modem doesn’t dial: i. Set Modem Init String on the PPP Configuration Web page to “&F”. This will reset the modem to its factory defaults. ii. Check that the RS-232 line speed is the same as you used when testing the modem with the computer. iii.
modem cable used to connect the i.LON 10 to the modem. 2. Open HyperTerminal. Assure that the scroll lock is turned off on your computer (if it is on, press the button to turn it off). In HyperTerminal, set the Bits Per Second to the same rate as used to communicate with the i.LON 10. Set Data Bits to 8, Parity to None, Stop Bits to 1, and Flow Control to Hardware, as shown in the following figure: 3. In HyperTerminal, turn on Echo. To do this, follow these steps: i.
• Wrong type of modem cable being used. Confirm that you are using a straight through cable. • Faulty modem cable being used. Try a different straight through cable. • You are connected to a different serial port than the one provided to HyperTerminal. Many computers have multiple serial ports (COM1, COM2, etc.), and often COM1 is used for the internal modem. Try switching HyperTerminal to COM2, COM3, etc. • Serial port is malfunctioning. Try connecting to a different serial port.
4. Verify that the user name and password set using Dial Up and Networking Connections on the computer matches the user name and password set on the PPP Setup Web page of the i.LON 10. 5. Assure that LCP Extensions is unchecked in the Windows PPP Settings dialog. You can open this dialog by following these steps: i. Open the Windows dial-up connection used to dial the i.LON 10. ii. Select the Networking tab. iii. Click the Settings button. 6.
4. Ensure that the Allow PPP Dial-back (Shoulder Tap) checkbox is set. You must clear the Allow and Authenticate Incoming PPP Connections checkbox to do this. 5. Set Respond to Shoulder Tap after Rings. If the i.LON 10 receives a call of at least this many rings, once the caller has hung up, the i.LON 10 will initiate a dial-out session. 6. Ensure that the Enable Outbound PPP Calls checkbox is set. 7. Set Number of Retries to Use When Attempting Outbound PPP Connection Attempts. 8. Click Submit. 9.
Using GSM/GPRS Modems with the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter In order for a GSM or GPRS modem to communicate with the i.LON 10, it must support all of the following signals: Tx, Rx, GND, RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR and CD. Check with your service provider to confirm that the modem you want to use supports these signals.
