Setting a Dial-Up Connection
Fig. 3–3. Automatic Tag Added to a Connection's Name.
1. While adding a site (as in
Naming / Renaming a Site, above) or updating one, click
in the “Connections to the Site” pane. The Add Connection dialog box is displayed.
Leave the IP Address box empty for a dial-up connection to a Multi-Media unit.
2. Click Use Dial-up Networking. See figure
3–3, above. Admin automatically names the
connection in the Connection Name box from “-> Network" to “-> Dialup”. See fig.
3–3.
You have the option of keeping the name or of typing another.
3. Leave the Country Code to “(dialing same country)”, unless the Multi-Media unit is in a
different country than the View operator planning to use the site.
4. Type the unit’s Area Code (City Code) and Phone Number obtained from your network
administrator (this is mentioned in section
Preparations, on p. 23). If a prefix number is
needed to access an outside line, set the prefix—the extra telephone keystroke such as
a “9” or an “8”—in Window's Telephony program.
5. Click Save and Close. An “Add Site / Update Site” window is displayed.
6. Click Close. The Sites tab appears. In the tab’s Primary Connection column, the first
letter of “dial-up” appears in parentheses: (d), followed by the telephone number used to
connect to the Multi-Media unit.
Should you plan to add alarm stations, dial-up connections from a Multi-Media unit to an alarm
station are explained in section
Dial-up Connection to an Alarm Station, on p. 208.
