4.4.6 Configure Auto Call Home UDP/IP Communications
UDP/IP communications refers to a network and transport protocol used for exchanging data over
the Internet. The Blastware feature Auto Call Home UDP/IP facilitates communications with
remote packet data modems, such as the Airlink Raven, on a PC or server, through a conventional
Internet connection. This feature of Blastware is used to transfer data from single or multiple
Instantel Series III and Series IV units at faster rates within a more stable and less costly
configuration then analog networks (Serial Communication). The analog data is converted for
transfer over a data network and the Internet; in the most efficient configuration, the modems
need to address a static IP address at the destination PC or server to facilitate transfer of this data
over the Internet, through a standard Internet connection at the destination PC/server.
The Auto Call Home UDP/IP program allows you to connect with up to two hundred and fifty six
remote units, and communicate with twenty five of those units simultaneously. Whenever an
event occurs, each monitor automatically calls your PC and downloads the event data into a
specified directory that is created using the unit serial number of the monitoring system. This
