Connect the modem to a telephone jack.
Power up the modem and the HC900 Controller.
On a remote computer, run Hybrid Control Designer software. Set up the PC software to dial the HC900 Controller.
Use the PC software "Loop-back" feature to verify that communications are established with the remote HC900 Controller.
AT E0 Q1 &W0
Then, press the ENTER key. The Modem will not respond.
11 Power down the modem and disconnect it from the PC.
12 Connect the modem to the RS-232 port of the HC900 Controller using a DB-25 male to DB-9 male RS-232 cable.
Key-in the following command string:
Key-in the following command string:
AT &Y0 &C0 &D0 &R1 &S0 &K0 S0=1
Then, press the ENTER key. The Modem should respond with OK.
In the program’s terminal window, key-in the following command string: AT E1 Q0
Then, press the ENTER key. The Modem should respond with OK.
In the program's terminal window, restore factory defaults by keying-in the following command string:
AT &F0
Then, press the ENTER key.
Connect power to the modem. Power up the modem.
Run a serial communication port program such as Hyperterminal.
Within the communication program, select the port to which the modem is connected. Configure the port to these settings:
baud rate = 9600, 19200, or 38400, 57600 (Must match Baud Rate configured in HC900 Controller)
data bits = 8 parity = none stop bits = 1
flow control = none
Connect the modem to a PC. If your PC’s RS-232 port has a 25-pin connector, use a DB-25 male to DB-25 female RS-232 cable. If your PC’s RS232 port has a 9-pin connector, use a DB-25 male to DB-9 female modem cable.
