Reference Topic:

Dial-Up Troubleshooting

Parameters Form
Use this tab to select the modems that will be used for dial-up micros.
Installed Modems: Displays all modems currently installed on the PC. To designate a modem for use
with a dial-up micro, enable it by clicking in the box to the left of the modem name so that a check
displays. If you have a modem installed for support use, DO NOT SELECT THAT MODEM.
Disconnect After Idle: Select the number of minutes you want the system to wait before disconnecting
from the micro when the connection is idle (there is no history or database information being exchanged).
If you select 0, the connection will remain active indefinitely and the host will never drop communication
with the micros.
Network Port Range:

If you communicate with your micros over a local intranet, this does not apply. Ignore these
remarks.

If you must cross a firewall to communicate with your micros, you will need to read the
following:

Low end:/High end: You will be required to open up a range of ports sufficient to support the number of
micros with which you must communicate outside a firewall. The first ten port addresses are reserved for
client-to-client communication. Anything beyond the first ten port addresses can be used for micro
communication.
Example Addresses:
Default Low end:

6700

Default High end:

6709

(These are the 10 internal port addresses reserved for client-to-client communication.)
Change High end: to:

6710

= Assign address to 1 micro outside the firewall.

6711

= Assign addresses to 2 micros outside the firewall.

6712

= Assign addresses to 3 micros outside the firewall.
