Operation (Cont.)
Select 2000 Series and Modem Dial to Remote Wired as
the connection type. Finally, enter the weather station
phone number exactly as it would be dialed from a tele-
phone, including 1+ area code. If there is a digit required
to acquire an outside line, it should be typed in as the first
number followed by a comma (i.e. 9,555-1234). The mo-
dem will pause 2 seconds after dialing the 9 before dialing
the rest of the number. The dash can be included for clar-
ity but is not necessary. After clicking the “OK” button,
this station will be available in the WatchDog Manager
screen and can be read out and/or launched from your
computer.
Contacting the Weather Station
To connect to a station that has already been set up on
your computer (see previous section), Select the station
from the list of available stations in WatchDog Manager.
If you need to change any of the existing contact informa-
tion, click the Properties button in the WatchDog Man-
ager screen (fig. 3). This will bring up the WatchDog
Properties screen. In this screen you can modify the
phone number and the name of the weather station.
