7 Configuration and projects

7.1Initial configuration

You can regard a Mitsubishi Alarm Modem (MAM) in the same way as you would consider a PC with an operating system and many communication programs. After the initial power up, the task memory is empty and the MAM “doesn’t know” what it is meant to do. It has to be configured first of all and assigned a task. The task definition for the MAM with all the relevant data is called a project and is saved in a TiXML project file. These points are explained in the following para- graphs.

7.2Loading projects in the MAM

You can create projects with a number of different user programs available, e.g. MX-Mitsubishi Alarm Editor MX-MAE (see chapter 8.1). The required parameters can be entered easily on the PC and then saved on the hard disk of the PC as a TiXML project file. The PIN of the SIM card is also entered in the software and in the project file (only GM series). The project must then be loaded onto the Mitsubishi Alarm Modem via a serial interface.

The device is now functional as a stand-alone device (i.e. without a PC) and can be used, for example, to monitor PLCs.

7.3Loading projects remotely on the MAM

Once a functional configuration has been loaded on the MAM, this can also be modified or trans- ferred by remote dial-in. Every reconfiguration (remotely or locally) can be protected from unau- thorized access by means of a password and user name. Refer to section 8.2, Secure Login, for further information.

NOTE

The contents of chapter 7.4 applies only to the GM series.

7.4Operating the GSM Modem

As with a mobile phone, the PIN of the SIM card has to be entered in order to correctly configure the Mitsubishi Alarm Modem for GSM operation. The MAM can only log in automatically and become functional if the correct PIN has been entered. Refer to the documentation of your mobile network supplier for the PIN. Once the SIM card has been inserted in a mobile phone, the PIN can also be modified there.

7.4.1PIN entry with MX-MAE software

When using MX-MAE software, the PIN can be entered when you are creating the project.

7.4.2PIN OK, network available, MAM logged in

The MAM logs in like a normal mobile phone if the PIN that is entered in the project for the SIM card inserted is correct, and network reception for the respective provider is available. The Line LED will then flash at regular intervals.
