3. Adjust PC volume

Whether hosting via a WAN or within a LAN, it is recommended that you test your setup at least once using a KNS environment arranged with host and remote on the same LAN. This should allow you to adjust volume to the appropriate level. To adjust terminal level, display the recording control, confirm that MIC input is selected, and adjust the level. For speaker output level adjustment, adjust WAVE.

4. User setup

Open the setup window and set the COM port to be used for commands, whether or not to use voice communications, session time, and whether or not to keep a log. By clicking on Add, you can then input the name and password of the user to connect.

The host administrator then informs the remote PC user of the above user name and password, as well as other relevant information such as how to make up an audio cable (for use with either the DATA terminal or MIC/EXP-SP). The remote PC user can then connect to this host using the information provided.

Note that a red X mark within the user frame indicates that this user is temporarily barred from connecting to the host.

After the setup is completed, you can return to the main window and click on CON; the button will then appear yellow. This completes the setup: the host is now ready for the remote PC user to make a connection.

Once the audio cable has been made up, connect the various cables to your PC as illustrated below.

In addition, connect your PC to the TS-480 with an RS-232 cable.
