Configuration Chapter 2
Optional Modem Configuration Settings
These optional settings are also available:
• Dialing Prefix
Set the desired dialing prefix (e.g. if 9 or 8 prefix is needed to access an
outside line). The comma (,) character inserts a pause.
• Advanced Settings
– Blind Dialing
If the i-Sense reports that it cannot find a dial-tone even though the line
has been tested, it is possible to enable blind dialing to skip the dial-
tone detection phase of the dialing process. This should only be enabled
on a dedicated phone line, otherwise other devices or users may be
interrupted while using the phone line.
– Alternate Internet Service Provider (ISP)
Depending on the availability of local phone numbers from the i-Grid
phone number lookup page, it may be desirable to use an alternate ISP.
Enter the user name and password for the ISP.
– Extra Modem Initialization String
In rare cases it may be necessary to change the modem default
initialization settings. Unless instructed by Rockwell Automation
support, leave the modem initialization string blank.
