5: Configuring your PinPoint-E

Using AceManager

Using Templates

Using a Terminal Application with AT Commands

With ALEOS as its “brain”, the PinPoint‐E is a highly configu‐ rable device, more than just a “dumb” modem.

To configure your PinPoint‐E, you have two options. You can use the configuration and management applications of the AceWare suite or you can use a terminal emulator application such as HyperTerminal, PuTTY, or many others.

Since the AceWare applications are designed for ease of use, nearly all descriptions and screen shots of PinPoint‐E configu‐ ration in this guide and Application Notes are done with AceManager. In addition to the various chapters in this guide giving information and directions about using the features of your PinPoint‐E, the Configuration Commands appendix briefly describes all the commands available. To get a more expanded view of the other AceManager features, refer to the AceManager Guide.

A full listing of all the configuration commands for you modem are in Appendix A.

Using AceManager

AceManager is a free utility and is available on the product CD or can be downloaded from the Sierra Wireless America website:http://www.sierrawireless.com/support/AirLink/ default.aspx.

Tip: AceManager is the same application as Wireless Ace. The name was changed to fit better with its features.”
