Chapter 3: Communication Setup
CHAPTER 3COMMUNICATION SETUP
After you have installed the unit, you must set up communications with ISACC before you
can begin programming. To communicate with ISACC you must have the following:
•IBM PC or compatible with the Microsoft Windows Operating System, an RS232
serial port and/or a Hayes compatible modem and the supplied DB25 cable.
OR
•Dumb terminal with an RS232 serial port and/or a Hayes compatible modem and
the supplied cable DB-25.
Whether you use a PC or a dumb terminal, you may communicate with ISACC in two ways:
1) Locally through the PC or terminal’s RS232 port to ISACC’s RS232 port, or 2) remotely
through a modem connected to the PC or terminal to ISACC’s built-in modem.
This chapter is divided into two sections: 1) SETUP FOR PC, and 2) SETUP FOR TERMI-
NAL. Each section explains how to setup for local and remote communication with ISACC.
Refer to Appendix B for a diagram of the ISACC Board layout.
Included with your unit is a software program designed to be used with your ISACC. Before
using this program please read the ISACC MANAGER for Windows User’s Manual within this
binder.
