Is it possible to control when Lookout 4.5 dials up a site?

[Ollie]

I need the ability to control when Lookout 4.5 dials one of my sites. I don't want to be connected all the time. And I only have one site. I'm using a Zetron 1732 and a modem. I want to be able to flip a switch to Dial and Switch the other way to hang up.

Hi,

Remove the 'poll rate' from your Modbus object, and connect a Switch to the 'Poll' datamember.

The object will now poll, and hence dial, only when you flip the Switch.

If you however want to stay connected after dialing, connect another switch to the OffHook datamember to do this. Flip the Switch off to not stay connected.

Rgds,

Khalid 🙂
