Performance Notes
• All images over the PPP connection will be grayscale to conserve bandwidth. If
other users are connected while a PPP session is active, their screens will be in
grayscale as well. When PPP is inactive, color is automatically re-enabled.
• Some areas of the screen may not be updated as frequently as others, and
animations or other auto-updating areas of the screen may appear out-of-focus
or “blocky” as a result. Since the area around the mouse pointer is refreshed most
frequently, hold the pointer over an area to improve its clarity.
• It may be beneficial to minimize any unnecessary icons, backgrounds, or other
clutter on the host computer’s desktop to make the dial-up connection as efficient
as possible.
• If you need to configure the device over a serial connection while the modem
option is enabled, connect a serial cable and begin a terminal session following the
instructions under Terminal Configuration Using a Serial Cable in this manual. Once
connected, you will see the following message:
Expecting a modem, if human, type admin password (Or start PPP)
Type the password for user admin and press Enter. The password will not appear on the
screen. The configuration menu will appear. Make the changes you wish or press q and
Enter to exit and leave the modem connection active.
