2002 FIAT DUCATO 244 automatic transmission

CONNECT Nav
22
SERIAL - MODEM
(data interface)
This function enables to connect an
external device (e.g.: portable com-
puter) to the CONNECT Nav system
that in this case will act as a modem.
To implement such configuration the
link between the external device and
the CONNECT Nav system connec-
tion (to be found in central position
under the dashboard) shall be per-
formed using the cable provided with
the system.
The max. data transmission speed is
that provided for the cellular tele-
phone mode (TEL) and is equal to 9.6
Kbps, as established by the commu-
nication with GSM cell network.
During data transmission (modem
function on), the CONNECT Nav
condition is the following:
– telephone mode off (TEL-OFF);
– incoming calls blocked;– call forwarding blocked;
– navigator (NAV) function can be
activated; if navigation is on data trans-
mission can be slow;
– all audio functions (radio, CD) can
be activated
– emergency call can be forwarded
by pressing •25-fig. 1.
IMPORTANTThe modem func-
tion cannot be activated during a call.IMPORTANTPress button •to
abort the modem function; the system
will restore the GSM telephone mode
for the selected function and will re-
quest to enter the PIN code; data ex-
changed during transmission will be
lost (unless data back-up have been
performed by user’s computer appli-
cations).
The modem function will not be re-
stored automatically by the system
when the emergency or service call is
over. To restore it repeat the proce-
dure from the beginning.

CONNECT Nav

IMPORTANTStarting the engine
when the modem function is on, will
cause the connection drop with data
loss as a consequence. Stooping the
engine has no effect on data transmis-
sion since the CONNECT Nav will
stay on for other 20 minutes. If a GSM
communication is in progress the sys-
tem will automatically activate a new
window for other 20 minutes. Long
GSM communications (with data
transmission) can run down the vehi-
cle battery.
Operation requirements
The modem function is operational
if the following conditions are present:
– CONNECT Nav system on;
– SIM card inserted;
– sufficient credit;
– GSM coverage.Portable computer setting
SERIAL PORT SETTING
The computer serial port shall be set
for 9600bps data transmission speed.
For “Windows 95” proceed as fol-
lows:
– open “computer resources”
– open “control panel”
– open “system”
– open “peripheral control”
– select “com and LPT ports”
– select “COM1 port”
– select “port setting”
– check: bit per second = 9600
data bit = 8
parity = no parity
stop bit = 1
flow control = Xon/Xoff
MODEM SETTING
The portable computer shall have the
modem. For “Windows 95” proceed
as follows:
– open “computer resources”
– open “control panel”
– open “modem”:
select add
select “modem types” = other
select “next” and follow the dis-
played instructions.

MODEM (data interface)
This function enables to connect an
external device (e.g.: portable com-
puter) to the CONNECT Nav+ that
in this case will act as a modem. To im-
plement such configuration the link be-
tween the external device and the
CONNECT Nav+ connection (to be
found in central position under the
dashboard) shall be performed using

phone mode (TEL) and is equal to 9.6

Once the modem has been proper-
ly installed, the portable computer can
use all the applications provided for
telematic connections to data base -
external servers, etc.; more particu-
larly the following can be used:
– Hiper Terminal;
– Microsoft Explorer or Netscape
for Internet and its applications (pro-
vided the user has an “Internet
provider”);
– Microsoft Mail or Groupwise (for
e-mail address).To activate the Modem function,
proceed as follows:
– press the “MAIN” button17-fig. 1
to display the main screen;
– press the knob 22-fig. 1and turn
it to select “Setup” then press the
knob to confirm; the display will show
the “Commands&Set” menu. The
field near “Modem” will show the cur-
rent status:
“Off” = serial transmission not pos-
sible
“On” = serial transmission operat-
ing;– to change status turn knob 22-
fig. 1and select “Modem” fig. 24
then press the knob to confirm; the
screen shown in fig. 25will be dis-
played;
– turn the knob 22-fig. 1to select
“On” or “Off” then press the knob to
confirm;
With “Modem-On” data can be
transmitted according to the applica-
tion selected on the portable com-
puter.
With “Modem-Off” the CONNECT
Nav+ will automatically restore its
functions (especially the telephone
function).
