RouteFinder RF500S User Guide

Port Settings

The Modem Settings options are used to configure the communication between your modem or ISDN
TA and your RouteFinder serial port. You must specify the baudrate, modem and modem string
settings for your device.

1.

To view or change the port settings, from the main Manager dialog box, click Port Settings. The
Port Settings dialog box displays.

2.

Complete the fields as follows:

Baudrate:
Use the list to select the Remote Access DTE speed for your device.

The absolute maximum setting for a given port on the network device is 4 x the speed of your
modem. If the baudrate is set too high, your network device may fail to establish a dial-up
connection. For example, if you have a 14.4Kbps modem, the highest speed selected is 57.6Kbs.

If your modem does not appear in the list provided, the Standard Modem selection will work in
most cases.

Important: If you are using an ISDN Terminal Adapter, refer to the Async to Sync PPP string in
the User Manual provided with the device to determine the correct initialization, dialup and hang up
strings.

Note: Due to variations in ISP connections and phone line quality, this theoretical maximum
speed is not attainable. You may need to set the baudrate at a lower speed.
