Unit ID
This menu accesses the current Unit ID setting, which is the system

figuration control (such as using T-Watch PRO).

Editing or changing the Unit ID requires the use of a passcode if a
passcode is defined. See “Set Passcode (Front Panel)” on page 4-8 for
details on working with passcodes. Unit Identification numbers must
be between 2 and 9999. The number 1 is reserved for the PC.

Selecting Init Modem provides the option to send the modem initial-
ization string (e.g., ATE0V1&D2S0=1) from the chain port to a
modem connected to the chain port. Configure this string in the ter-
minal menus. See “Modem Initialization String” on page 5-14 for
details on how to change this field.

The Init Modem option is only used if Type is set to Dial.
