PC utility software communication via modem
Locate the settings for modem communication in
the utility software settings (F3).
Select modem and enter the telephone number of
your GSM modem connected to the unit.
When using modem dial-up, the PC utility software
must also be set to run ASCII data communication.
After this, dial-up can be used.

The modem communication is much slower than the normal direct connection, so please be
patient. It is not recommended to download the entire setting list. Use single setting down-
loads.
If a PC utility software connection is required, then the SIM card must support data transfer.
Contact your GSM provider for details.
PC utility software communication safety
If the communication fails, the controller will operate according to the received data. If e.g. only half of the
parameter file has been downloaded when the communication is interrupted, the settings are going to be a
mix.
6.31 USW communication
It is possible to communicate with the unit via the PC utility software. The purpose is to be able to remote
monitor and control the genset application.
It is possible to remote control the genset from the PC utility software if a modem is used. Take
precautions that it is safe to remote operate the genset to avoid personal injury or death.
Serial connection
The serial connection to the GSM modem is via the null-modem cable (option J3).
Setup
The Modbus protocol type can be changed from RTU to ASCII. When set to ASCII protocol, the unit will allow
for the slower modem communication.
