Connecting Two Windows NT Computers with EiconCards

MORE INFORMATION

1. Make sure both EiconCards support the null modem cable you will be using. Cable requirements may be different for different models on EiconCards.
2. One computer must be configured to use internal clocking and the other computer must be configured to use external clocking. To configure the type of clocking, run Eicon's WAN Services Configuration program and go to the Sync Driver Configuration panel.
3. Configure the internal clocking computer to use DCE addressing. Configure the external clocking computer to use DTE addressing. To configure DTE/DCE Addressing, go to the Sync Driver Configuration panel in the WAN Services Configuration program.
4. Make sure all X.25 and HDLC panel settings are the same on both computers.
5. Verify the Eicon X.PAD driver is installed in the Network Control Panel Applet (NCPA) on both computers. If X.PAD is not installed, install it. Consult your Eicon documentation for installation instructions.
6. Configure the X.PAD driver and a COM port on both computers. Leave all X.PAD configuration settings for the ports at their default values.
7. Configure RAS in NCPA on both computers. Add the port you configured in the X.PAD driver. Select Eicon X.PAD as the device. Make sure the port on one computer is set for dialout and the port on the other computer is set to receive calls.
8. Restart both computers when prompted.
9. Create an entry in the RAS Phonebook application on one computer and configure it to use the port you configured within the X.PAD driver.
10. Dial the entry you have created, using an account that has been granted RAS dial-in permission on the other computer.
