this value to at least 1 minute. When set to 0 the unit will dial back-to-back calls without the pos- siblity of calling in to acknowledge an alarm. The Intercall Delay can be set from 0–60 minutes.

Test Dial Tone: The RIM-600 can be programmed to test periodically for dialtone to ensure that the telephone line is alive in the event that the unit has to dial out for an alarm. If the unit determines that a dialtone is not present, it will send a diagnostic alarm via e-mail and/or SNMP to profiles that are set up to receive diagnostic alarms (i.e. diagnostic class). Check to enable, then enter the test interval, in hours, in the every X hours box.

Finally, select the Clock Settings tab. To set the time in the RIM-600 Host, click the button labeled Set to Current PC Time. Next, select the Host’s Time Zone according to its location. If you would like the unit to synchronize its time on a daily basis, enter the IP address of a compatible time serv- er.

The RIM-600 can be programmed to synchronize its clock to a reference time server every night at midnight. To use this feature the RIM-600 must have network access to a server which supports one of the following time code protocols:

Network Time Protocol - NTP (RFC-1035) Time Protocol - TP (RFC-868)

Daytime Protocol - DP (RFC-867)

Click the Clock Settings tab. Enter the name or IP address of the time server in the Synchronize Clock field. To disable this feature, delete the name or IP address.

Note: After setting the time zone, you must reboot for the new settings to take effect.

Adding a Node

Once the node has been connected to the network and the Local Configuration has been performed, it will automatically start communicating with the Host. From the RIM-600 Consoleview the Node will appear within the tree. See figure below.
