RS-232 Connection (Modem Use)
Modem controls, discussed in Section 5, User Interface Guide, enable or disable modem control
through the RS-232 interface. When this option is enabled from a standard terminal connection, all
RS-232 communications cease until a modem with a null modem adapter is attached between the
TRACER 4106/4206 and the data modem. Configure the data modem for
through the RS-232 interface. When this option is enabled from a standard terminal connection, all
RS-232 communications cease until a modem with a null modem adapter is attached between the
TRACER 4106/4206 and the data modem. Configure the data modem for

When the user connects via the modem to the TRACER 4106/4206 unit, communications via the RS-232
port resume. If a user accidentally enables modem control from a terminal and disrupts the RS-232
communication, pressing <Ctrl + Z> three times will temporarily disable the modem control option (until
the system is reset) and will access the system option to disable modem control.

The TRACER 4106/4206 must be interfaced to a modem via an RS-232 null modem adapter or cable. The
null modem converts Clear To Send (CTS) and Data Set Ready (DSR) into Ready To Send (RTS) and Data
Terminal Ready (DTR), respectively. These signals indicate (to most modems) that a valid DTE terminal
device is present. The null modem interface must route Carrier Detect (CD) on pin 8 directly from the
modem. When using the RS-232 interface for modem control, the modem must source CD only when
actually connected to a carrier.

is selected in the menu system, the TRACER 4106/4206 will de-assert DTR
