Connection Properties
RAD phone number
This is the number, which will be answered by RAD at the Norstar location
if you are calling into the RAD over a phone line.
RAD password
This is the number ICSRT uses to identify itself as a valid user to the RAD.
There is no default password, therefore, when you install a new RAD, you
must use the telephone interface on site to program an eight-to-10-digit
password before you can use ICSRT to connect.
COM Port
This is the communication port on the personal computer that ICSRT uses
to communicate with the Norstar system. You can select COM1 through
COM9 if your computer supports them. COM1 is the default.
Connect type
Choose the way your computer connects to the RAD: Direct, Remote
(default), Operator-Assisted, Auto-Attendant.
The connection type used depends on where the Norstar system is located
relative to the managing computer, and the type of assistance required at
the Norstar to connect to the RAD.
Note: Operator-assisted connections do not support the scheduled backup
and restore operations.
Baud rate
This is the communication rate used by ICSRT to communicate with the
Norstar system in an on-line session, a backup, or a restore.
The default is 19200.
If you are using a direct connection, the local baud rate at the RAD must
match the baud rate chosen for the direct connection in ICSRT. Refer to
“Modem settings” on page 26.
Note: The restore feature requires a baud rate greater than 1200.
Dial mode
The dial mode used by ICSRT can be either pulse or tone, depending on
the CO line type used by ICSRT. The default is tone.
Modem init string
Some modems require special codes to allow proper communication. Refer
to
“Modem settings” on page 26.
Notes
This is a scratch area. Type any information you want to add about the
Norstar system.
Select Workbook
If you created a workbook, or intend to use a workbook to configure the
system, assign it here. If you have not yet created the workbook, you can
assign it later.
The default value is None.
Note: When you press the OK button, OlpWorksheets\System ID directory
will be created under the folder where the database is located. The
selected workbook will be copied to that directory.
Refer to “Programming a system using a workbook” on page 90.
