ARENA / RANGER

USER GUIDE

c.In Remote Site Address or IP Address, enter the URL or the IP Address of the remote ARENA PC.

Under Connect, select Directly if you want to connect to the remote ARENA without an ISP (Internet Service Provider, see NOTES below). Select Dial to ISP first using if you want to connect via ISP (dial-up). From the list, select the ISP. If desired add or remove ISP connections using the

buttons. To edit ISP properties, click button and change properties in the Connection Settings dialog box.

Dial-up connections are typically used to connect to an ISP (internet service provider) when the mail server is not reachable via LAN.

NOTES:

Yahoo cannot be used as ISP because there are issues on the provider side concerning external email access. Use an alternative ISP.

ARENA shows all dial-up connections on your PC here, except the ones used to connect to remote sites. ARENA will also allow creating new Dial-up connections to ISPs, which is the recommended way for alarm forwarding. You can choose an existing dial-up connection to an ISP.

ATTENTION!

When selecting an existing dial-up connection, make sure that the modem connection is set up in a way that it does not attempt to retry after the phone line drops, because this conflicts with the retry attempts of ARENA. You can check this by selecting Connect to / Show all connections from the Windows Start menu. Then open the properties of the connection.
