Section 9 REMOTE CONTROL

CONNECTING TO A COMPUTER
The RS- 232 serial port can be used for computer control of the system. Full status and
control are available via this port, including ISDN dialing, storage of set- ups, etc.
The communication protocol is simple ASCII text, so it may be used easily with
any computer and terminal emulation software. Some user’s are using a palm top
computer with macros to control their Zephyrs in the field
Some “terminal emulation” software possibilities are:
•
For the PC
: Crosstalk, Procomm, MS Windows built- in Terminal or
HyperTerminal, etc.
•
For the Macintosh
: Z- Term, White Knight, etc.
The Zephyr may be connected locally to a personal computer, or to a modem for
control from a remote site. There will be a difference in the required cabling, as
described in the Installation section. The Zephyr serial port is configured as DTE (Data
Terminal Equipment), which means it looks like the connection on a computer, rather
than on a modem.
•
With local computer operation, a null modem cable is used.
•
With a modem connection, a standard (non- null) cable is required.
•
Or a custom Zephyr- to- computer cable may be fabricated, as follows:
