Chapter 2: Software Information
Overview
The IN-tact1100 Series IP Gateways are software-driven devices. The functions that a particular model can perform depend on the version of application software that has been loaded into the unit’s memory at the factory. Configuration is performed via a Web Server interface, providing the IN-tact1101 with a unique IP address and personality. This document discusses the IN-tact1101 model and how the device is configured using the on-board Web Server. Other operational information, such as loading software updates on the device, viewing the device status, and the Event Log are also discussed.
NOTE: It is important to note that the hardware and software function as a matched set called a “model”. Self checks are built into the boot process that validate any software loaded on the unit. This prevents programming the unit with an application that is not intended for the specific IN-tact 1100 model. In other words, you cannot change the model number or add features from another model just by loading new software.
Dial Backup Feature
In addition to processing IP transactions, the IN-tact 1101 features dial backup capability in the event of ISP (or other) outage that affects the ability to process transactions via the device's Ethernet port. A compatible modem must be physically connected to Port 1 (RS-232) on the INtact 1101 and a working telephone line connected to the modem in order to use the dial backup feature. Currently supported modems include:
•US Robotics 5686e
•Hayes H08-15328-C
•ZOOM 3048C
