location is entered, the Galaxy SC will hang-up, wait 5 seconds, and
then call the phone number assigned to the selected location. Once the
call is answered, the Galaxy SC will prompt for a password and start a
T1.317 session.
To prevent the Galaxy SC from hanging up before prompting for a
location, disable error correction on the answering modem. See the
modem manufacturer’s documentation for the modem initialization
command to disable error correction.
Security Events The Galaxy SC provides three programmable events that indicate
password at default, excessive login attempts, and external password
reset. The password at default event is active when any password is at
its default setting. To clear this event change all passwords to something
other than their default setting.
The excessive login attempts event becomes active when the user fails
6 times to enter a correct password when logging onto the system or
when the user fails 3 times to enter a correct password when changing
security levels. This event must be cleared manually from the front
panel or from the T1.317 interface. This event is logged into history
each time it occurs regardless of whether it has been cleared previously
or not.
The external password reset event becomes active when the
administrator password is reset using the reset password button located
on the front of the intelligent controller. This event must be cleared
manually from the front panel or from the T1.317 interface. This event
is logged into history each time it occurs regardless of whether it has
been cleared previously or not.
Serial Access
Ports
The Galaxy SC provides three serial access ports that serve as interfaces
to the system. The ports are called the local port, auxiliary port, and the
modem port. Access to the ports can be configured to restrict
super-users and administrators from logging into the ports. See the
security section of this manual for details on limiting access to the ports.
Each of the serial access ports is described below.
Local Port The local port is an RS-232 port that provides access to terminals using
a T1.317 interface or it can serve as an alarm reporting interface that can
be connected to printer or other serial data logging device. The
following defines the parameters that characterize the local port:
