ZbaseW Communications (ZlinkW)
After you have created the first location you need to configure the communications
properties in ZlinkW. The following procedure demonstrates how to do that.
♦ Setting ZlinkW communications properties
1. From the ZlinkW menu bar, select the Communications menu.
2. From the Communications menu, select the Properties option. The ZlinkW
Properties dialog will open.
3. In the ZlinkW Properties dialog, select one of the three option buttons across the
top to specify the mode of communications being used: Modem, Serial, or
Network. The dialog will disable some of the fields in the window based on the
mode of communication you select.
4. Fill out the remaining fields to support the communications mode selected in the
preceding step.
Password The Password allows for maximum security of your paging terminal
data. A person intent on gaining unauthorized access to your paging
terminal would need to know your paging terminal's phone number
& password, plus have a copy of ZlinkW. The password is entered
here and automatically used by ZbaseW when it transfers data to and
from the paging terminal. This means you do not need to memorize
it.
Phone Number The Phone Number field is used to input the phone number
(complete dialing string actually) for modem connections, specify
baud rate for local connections, and to supply the IP address and port
number for network connections. More details on local and IP
settings can be found under Local Connections on page 64.
Com Port The COM port field is used to identify which COM port on the PC is
being used for the local serial or modem connection. This will most
often be set either “1” or “2”. When this field is selected, the HELP
window will contain additional information about what your options
are.
