4.1.1.2 WebPAD/Base Station Registration
Before a base station and tablet can communicate with
each other, they must be registered together. The regis-
tration process is a simple one.
1.
Power up the base station and the tablet.
2.
Invoke the DECT Monitor utility using the QNX menu
button in the lower left corner of the screen.
3.
In the Dect Monitor window, select the Utilities menu,
followed by the “Scan Base Station” entry. The tablet
scans for base stations to be used. A window
appears listing all of the base stations found.
4.
Select the box next to the base station to be used.
5.
Press the Registration button located on the front of
the base station. Note: Step 8 (below) must be
completed within one minute of pressing the Regis-
tration button (step 5). If step 8 is not been completed
with one minute of step 5, repeat steps 4 through 8.
6.
In the “Scan Base Station” window, touch the Select
button. Another window will appear, listing the capa-
bilities of the base station.
7.
Once all the capabilities of the base station have
been listed, enter the PIN code in the PIN Code text
box (See the WebPAD 1.5 System User Guide for
more information about the PIN).
8.
Press the Register button. Note: This step must be
completed within one minute of step 5 (above). If step
8 is not completed within one minute of step 5, repeat
steps 4 through 8.
This initiates the registration process. When completed,
the tablet and base station will have established a com-
munication link between them. For a more detailed expla-
nation of the registration process, please consult the
WebPAD 1.5 System User Guide.
4.1.1.3 Using The System
The browser included in the WebPAD 1.5 system provides
the same basic functionality as all standard browsers.
1.
Select “Web” from the application launcher or
“Browser” from the QNX menu to invoke the web
browser.
2.
To enter a web page address (URL), touch the
address of the current page which appears in the
upper border of the browser. This highlights the entire
address.
3.
Touch the keyboard icon in the lower left-hand corner
of the screen.
4.
Type in the desired address. (Note: the keyboard
contains a “www.” and a “.com” button to simplify the
typing process).
5.
Press “Enter.” The desired web site will appear.
The browser is also capable of moving between previ-
ously loaded pages, reloading pages and stopping the
loading of a page (via the icon in the top border of the
browser). To follow links between pages, simply touch the
link and the browser will load and displays that page.
4.1.1.4 Adding a New Dial-up Account
To add a new dial-up account to a system containing a
DECT base station, use the Internet Dial-up Connector
utility, as follows:.
1.
Invoke the Internet Dial-up Connector utility via the
QNX menu button in the lower left corner.
2.
Touch the “New” button to create an new ISP account
for the WebPAD 1.5 system.
3.
In the “ISP Setup” window, add:
- ISP Description: Name of the ISP
- Server Address: IP Address of the DNS server
- Phone No.: Phone number of the ISP
- Login Script: Select login script or create new one
- Idle Time-out: Length of idle time before ISP log off
- User Name: Logon Identification, provided by ISP
- Password: Password provided by ISP (optional.) If
not entered here, the user will be prompted for it
when establishing the connection to the ISP.
4.
Verify the modem setup. If you are unsure, leave
them at their default settings.To check and/or change
the settings, touch the “Modem Settings...” button
and make changes. Touch “Apply” to enter the
desired changes.
5.
When all information is entered, touch the “Apply”
button.
The Internet Dial-up Connector utility is now ready to con-
nect to the new ISP.
4.1.1.5 Login Scripts
Login scripts search for particular text strings in a certain
order. When the dialer finds the string it is looking for, it
replies with the designated text string. These scripts are
created and edited in the Internet Dial-up Connector util-
ity, in the ISP Setup window (see 4.1.1.4 "Adding a New
Dial-up Account"), on a WebPAD 1.5 system that contains
a DECT base station. In the ISP setup window, select
either an existing script or enter a new script name, then
touch the “Edit Script...” button to open the Script Editor
window.
Each step shown in the window is processed, in
sequence, starting at the top. Each line is composed of
three parts: What to wait for, what to reply with, and what
status is to be posted. On the right side of the window are
buttons to insert steps or modify/remove the currently
selected line. Three boxes at the bottom of the window are
used to edit the settings of the currently selected line.
To modify a line, select it. The contents of the line is then
shown in the boxes at the bottom. Modify any or all of the
selected line. After completing the modifications, touch
the “Modify” button to save the changes.
