Modem/ISDN port

The Wizard IP Plus provides a serial port specifically for you to connect either a modem or ISDN terminal adapter. This can be used as a primary, secondary or backup access port for remote systems, as best suits your overall configuration.

IMPORTANT: When the Wizard IP Plus is accessible from the public Internet or dial up connection, you must ensure that sufficient security measures are employed.

To connect a modem or ISDN port

1Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the Wizard IP Plus and the modem or ISDN adapter.

2Connect a suitable serial modem (non-crossover) cable to the serial port on the modem/ISDN adapter.

3Connect the other end of the serial cable to the port labelled MODEM at the rear of the Wizard IP Plus.

Note: The default serial port speed is 115200 and a standard Hayes-compatible auto-answer string is sent during startup. The default startup string is ‘ATZHS0=1’. Both the serial port speed and startup string settings can easily be altered during the local or remote configuration - see Initial configuration for more details. The other serial settings are fixed at: No parity, 8 bit word and 1 stop bit.

Power supply connection

The Wizard IP Plus is supplied with a single power supply and an appropriate country-specific IEC power lead. However, it has two power input sockets to allow a second power supply to connected as a fail-safe. The Wizard IP Plus can operate easily from a single power input. However, when two power supplies are connected, the power load is shared between them. There is no on/off switch so operation begins as soon as a power supply is connected.

To connect the power supply

1Connect the low voltage output lead from the power supply unit to either power socket on the rear panel of the Wizard IP Plus.

2If required, connect the low voltage output lead from a second suitable power supply to the other power socket on the rear panel of the Wizard IP Plus.

3Connect the IEC connector of the supplied country-specific power lead to the socket of the power supply. Repeat for the second power supply, if used.

4Connect the power lead(s) to a nearby main supply socket.

Note: The correct operation of one or both connected power supplies are confirmed during power-up by the A and B indicators on the front panel as power is applied.
