Tab. 1-1 Mitsubishi Industrial Modems at a glance

The Mitsubishi Normal Modem GSM requires, like any conventional modem, a software in the PC like a program for dial-up connection or for tje sending and receiving of fax messages. A Mitsubishi Super Modemhowever sends all data by using simple AT commands.No additionally software is required in this case.

2.2 Teleservice via PC

A Mitsubishi Industrial Modem (MIM-A01, MIM-G01) can be used to handle the remote mainte nance of several controllers via a telephone line or via the Internet. Program upand download may be carried out via the Mitsubishi programming software (e.g. GX IEC Developer), while the connection therefore may be established via the Mitsubishi programming software

3.1.2 Meaning of the LEDs

The MIM-G01 presents two LEDs, which indicate the devices current operating mode. After the power supply has been switched on, a self test will be executed. The end of this test is indicated by a acoustic signal (short beep). After the test, thedevice tries to make a connection to the GSM network. The green LED will flash slowly when the log in was successful.

NOTES Standard GSM antennas with an FME plug can be used. The GSM antenna is not supplied

with the modem and can be ordered separately.

If the length of the antenna cable is not sufficient for your requirements you can use a suit able extension cable purchased as an accessory from a GSM outlet. Take into account the attenuation of these cables that will reduce the antenna gainand observethe relevant specifications of the manufacturer.

3.1.4 Inserting the SIM card

The SIM card of an mobile phone provider is necessary for the use of a GSM Modem.

To insert the SIM card in the modem, open the SIM card holder on the Mitsubishi Alarm Modem by pressing the small button on the right of the holder with a pen or a pointed object.

To get access to your Mitsubishi Super Modem 56k, the telephone number of the connection used must be known.

3.2.4 Testing the Telephone Connection

In order to check the telephone number of the connection used, plug an usual telephone into the appropriate socket and dial the number by another telephone, or from a mobile. If the telephone at the appropriate socket rings, the number is correct.

In order tocheck if thetelephone connection supports the CLIP feature,dial from theappropriate connection to another telephone. If the calling number is shown atthe called party end, the CLIP feature is supported.

If calls were successful in both directions, you can connect your Mitsubishi Super Modem. The modem is now ready to be called and receive messages.

3.2.5 Telephone Exchange System

When connecting to a telephone exchange (PABX), take care if an outside line prefix is necessary.
