Both ends of the TRACER link must be set to the same number of active T1 ports. The TRACER 4106/4206
comes factory programmed with
ACTIVE T1 PORTS set to 4XT1.
>TRACER SYSTEM OPTIONS > MODEM CONTROL
Configures the modem control leads on the RS-232 port (terminal interface located on the rear panel of the
unit). Set
MODEM CONTROL to ENABLED when connecting the unit to a modem (using a null modem adapter).
Setting
MODEM CONTROL to DISABLED prevents the TRACER 4106/4206 from monitoring DCD and enables
data to be sent to the VT100 continuously.
MODEM CONTROL must be set to DISABLED when the VT100
terminal is in use. The TRACER 4106/4206 comes factory programmed with
MODEM CONTROL set to
DISABLED.
>TRACER SYSTEM OPTIONS > MODEM CONNECTION (LOGOUT)
Causes the TRACER 4106/4206 to de-assert Clear To Send (CTS) and DSR for a time greater than 20 msec.
This signals the modem to disconnect the analog connection. Hangup-On-DTR-Drop may need to be
explicitly enabled on some modems. If
PASSWORD PROTECTION is ENABLED, this menu also causes the unit to
close the current session and return to the TRACER System Status menu page and wait for password input.
>TRACER SYSTEM OPTIONS > PASSWORD ENABLE
Configures password protection for the VT100 terminal interface. Password protection for the
TRACER 4106/4206 requires password input from the TRACER 4106/4206 System Status menu page when
connecting to the unit. When configured for password protection, the TRACER 4106/4206 closes any
terminal session that remains inactive for more than 10 minutes. The TRACER 4106/4206 comes factory
programmed with
PASSWORD ENABLE set to DISABLED.
>TRACER SYSTEM OPTIONS > PASSWORD
Sets the password for password protection of the TRACER 4106/4206 VT100 terminal interface. Enter up to
8 alphanumeric characters. The system password is case sensitive.

changed first and the link is dropped, reset the local end to the previous setting to restore
the link.
Press <Ctrl+Z> three times from the terminal interface to disable MODEM CONTROL when
the modem control leads are active.
