CHAPTER2
InstallingtheRTU
13
To establish the data connection between the A850 and the A753,
certain steps must be executed. These steps are split into two
sections:
1. Configuring the GPRS parameters
2. Configuring the TCP parameters
CAUTION Parameter values are case sensitive. Be sure to correctly spell the
values of the GPRS parameters and use the appropriate case.
Misspelled names/entries will cause the RTU to not connect to the
GPRS network and/or A850.
ConfiguringtheGPRSParameters
Enter the GPRS parameters for your cellular network provider to
configure GPRS operation of the A753. The GPRS configuration
commands are:
GPRSAPNSERV "[servername]"
where [servername] is the name of the network
provider's GPRS access point name (required)
GPRSAPNUN "[username]"
where [username] is the name of the GPRS user's name
for your network provider (sometimes optional,
depends on your provider)
GPRSAPNPW "[password]"
where [password] is the password for the GPRS user
(sometimes optional, depends on your provider)
The following examples show the GRPS parameters for an Austrian
mobile phone services provider:
GPRSAPNSERV "A1.net"
GPRSAPNUN "ppp@A1plus.at"
GPRSAPNPW "ppp"
ConfiguringtheTCPParameters
The A753 will connect to the A850 only if the following TCP connection
parameters are set properly:
GPRSCONNADDR "[a850-ipaddress]" "[portnumber]"
where [a850-ipaddress] is the IP address of the A850
the A753 has to connect to and
[portnumber] is the port number where the
communication with the gateway will occur; the IP
address parameter must be in decimal dotted notation,
e.g. 198.182.196.56 (required)
