Overview

The Remote Access feature of 3821Plus modems allows you to change configuration options and control test functions in a remote 3821Plus modem from any COMSPHERE 3800, 3800Plus, or 3900 Series modem with a Diagnostic Control Panel (DCP) or a Shared Diagnostic Control Panel (SDCP). Remote access is only available when using V.34, V.32terbo, V.32bis, or

V.32 modulation schemes.

Unlike primary channel communications, the secondary channel operates at a slower data rate and does not interrupt data flow.

To access the Remote branch of the COMSPHERE modem menu structure, make the following selections:

Press the key until Remote appears. Select Remote.

The following conditions must be met before using Remote Access:

A connection using either the dial network or leased lines must be established.

The Access from Remote configuration option must be enabled in the remote 3821Plus modem

(S55 = 0).

The Remote Access Password configuration option must be the same for both the local and remote modems (S56±S59).

Remote access is accomplished using either the primary or secondary channel of the VF line. Using the primary channel gives a much faster response time due to the higher data rate, but it also interrupts data flow because primary data is stopped when Remote mode is active. Once Remote mode is terminated, the primary channel is automatically made available to data transmission.

To operate over the secondary channel, press any function key to select the secondary channel.
