CAUTION

A Conexant Modem does not support Pulse dialing. The Conexant Modem should be the only device on the telephone line. Attaching devices on the same line may cause one or more of these devices to operate incorrectly.

If your local modem (not the internal modem) is not already set up, configure it with the Remote Modem Configuration Utility according to the instructions in the online help. After the meter is installed and the internal modem is connected to the telephone network, the Comm 3 module can be configured using the meter’s front panel or ION software. To learn how to connect the internal modem to the telephone network, consult your meter’s Basic Setup and Installation Instructions.

NOTE

The online ION Enterprise Help contains details on: commissioning an ION network, managing modem connections, setting up periodic dial-out, and configuring remote site event notification.
