Remote Control Using a Direct Serial Connection
In the Edit Connection window, create a New Connection and name it. Then fill in the Password box (the
default password is 'tomtom'-lower case only!). The password may be changed at any time using the File
Menu "Change Password" option. Note that you must be connected to the Omnia in order to change the
password, and that the password change becomes valid the next time you attempt to log in with Omnia
Remote control.

The Omnia is designed a DCE device, and has a DB-25 female RS-232 port connector. Your computer will
typically be a DTE device, and will usually have either a DB-9 or DB-25 male connector. Since only
connections between the same type of equipment require a null modem cable (DCE to DCE, or DTE to
DTE), the Omnia to PC cable should be a straight-through type! A null modem cable will not work!

Connecting via Modem
Configure a new connection, also entering the telephone number to which the Omnia-6fm’s Modem Card is
connected. If your computer needs to dial an access code (such as "9") to get an outside line, that must be
entered as well. Sometimes if the outgoing connection passes through a PBX, it might require a short pause
between the outside line access code and the telephone number you're dialing. In this case, the telephone
number will need to have a comma inserted into it after the '9'. (In the standard Hayes command set, a
comma is a "pause" character).

Example: suppose you need to connect to a remotely located Omnia and it is connected to telephone
number 555-1234 in Area code 717. To make things more interesting, your local PBX system requires you
to dial a "9" to get an outside line. In this case, you'll need to dial "9" to get an outside line, as well as a "1"
because it is a long distance call. In this situation, the correct entry for the "Phone #" box would be:

To enhance 'human readability', you could parse the telephone number entry with hyphens. Doing this has
no effect on the ability of the program to dial out. The entry in the Phone # box entry would then be:
