Settings

Enabled - check this box to enable the GetTap interface. If the PageGate server is already running before you check this box, you will need to manually start this interface by right-clicking on 'GetTap' and choosing 'Start' from the popup menu. The next time the PageGate server is started, this interface will startup automatically.

Serial Port - choose a serial port (COM port) for the GetTap module to monitor for incoming TAP sessions. A modem is typically connected to this port.

Baud Rate - choose a baud rate to use for this connection. The default baud rate is typically 1200.

Parity - choose the parity to be used for this connection. The default parity is typically Even.

Data Bits - choose the number of data bits to be used on this connection. The default data bits is typically 7.

Stop Bits - choose the number of stop bits to be used with this connection. The default stop bits is typically 1.

Init String - the init string is a set of commands sent to the modem to configure it for incoming calls and to turn on or turn off features of the modem. For example, most systems using the TAP protocol communicate at 1200 baud with not error correction or data compression. Here are some sample modem init strings:

AT&FS0=1 - this init string resets the modem to factory defaults and sets the modem to answer on the first ring (this should be the minimum included in an init string).
AT&FS0=1Q0V1X4&D2N0S37=5\N0%C0 - this init string resets the modem to factory defaults, sets the modem to answer on the first ring, locks the baud rate to 1200 baud, turns off data compression, and turns of error correction (and a few other things).

For direct serial connections (no modem) set the init string to the word 'direct' (without the quotes).
