Auto Call Home™

Question:
How do I set up a Micromate to run the Auto Call Home function?
Answer:
The Auto Call Home function requires that the Micromate, modem, and PC are
configured before it will transfer data. Please refer to the Micromate User Manual
721U0201 section 11.4.4 and the Blastware™ User Manual 714U0201 section 4.4 for a
complete description and extended instructions.
NOTE: It is suggested that you configure the Micromate, modem, and PC in the office
before deploying in the field.
Configuring the Micromate for Auto Call Home
1 Touch the Auto Call Home short cut icon on the Micromate touch screen . This
Auto Call Home menu configures how the Micromate calls your destination
computer, assuming this function has been enabled.
NOTE: The Auto Call Home function does not support manually recorded events.
2 Enable Auto Call Home. Set Session Time Out to 30 minutes, Modem to Generic or
USB to PC, and baud rate to 115200.
For Modem connected Unit For Serial Port Connected Unit
NOTE: Session Time Out is used to exit Auto Call Home and return to monitor mode after the given time. Use this
feature to set the maximum amount of time the Micromate will NOT be in monitor mode.

SKIP THIS STEP IF YOU PLAN TO CONNECT OVER SERIAL TO THE UNIT
3 Use ONLY a Sabrent CB-FTDI USB to Serial Cable to connect the Micromate to the
modem.
To Configure the Modem
The Micromate supports the following three modems: Raven X, LS-300 and GX-400. The following example is for
the GX-400 modem, using the AirLink Ace Manager software to configure the modem.

When setting the TCP idle time-out value, Instantel strongly recommends one
of the following values based on your expected usage.
If you do not remotely configure the Compliance Setup and Schedule
of the monitoring unit, then we recommend using 65 seconds to allow
for TCP idle time that occurs when an Auto Call Home session
executes a Delete All on the unit.
If you remotely configure the Compliance Setup or Schedule of the
monitoring unit, then we recommend using 10 minutes to allow for the
TCP idle time that occurs between the time the Compliance Setup
window is opened in Blastware and the time the new configuration is
sent to the unit.

To Configure the PC for Auto Call Home
4 Start the most recent release of THOR. (See the software section of
http://www.instantel.com/system/files/thor_web_installer.zip)
5 Connect the Micromate unit to the PC. Confirm that the Micromate can
communicate with THOR. Connection Status should indicate Connected in THOR
NOTE: See THOR Operator manual for details on how to Add and connect to a unit in THOR
6 In the Unit Details area in THOR, under the Unit tab, click the Auto Call Home
Setup button. Then select if the unit is to call home after each event and/or if the unit
is to call home while monitoring.

7 Click Apply to send this setup to the unit.
8 Set up Auto Call Home Filters. In the Filter section under the Auto Call Home tab,
click the Add button . Enter the serial number and description for your
Micromate. (In the example below, Serial No. UM10169 and UM10169 ACH Setup.).
Please see the THOR Operator Manual for detailed description of Auto Call Home
Filters.
6
Click the applicable Check box to configure the operations that are to be done for this
unit.
9 Set up Communication Settings under the THOR Auto Call Home tab. If you are
using TCP communications for auto call home then enter the TCP Port number so
THOR knows where to listen for incoming communication/data from your modem.
For Serial and USB communication, the Micromate unit will show up under the
Active COM Ports (Not applicable for TCP protocol) which indicates THOR will
accept incoming data from the Micromate unit.
NOTE: For TCP communication, it may be required for IT to setup port forwarding so that data from the Monitoring
unit is routed to the TCP Port where THOR is listening on (12345 in the above example)
7
10 Configure report options by selecting the applicable check box, then click Apply to
save. Enabling “Generate Reports for Events Downloaded Using Auto Call Home”
creates CSV, PDF, TXT, XML file formats as part of the auto call home process and
is saved to the THOR project directory where the unit is added. No way to choose
the file formats.
NOTE: All reports are post processed using this application. Measurement units selected in this report setup
override the Seismograph's settings.
11 Start Auto Call Home by clicking Start button in THOR, under the Auto Call Home
tab.
NOTE: The IP address and port number must match the address and port number set in the modem. Please see the
THOR manual for more information.
12 To put the Micromate in monitor mode, press the Start Monitor button on the unit or
click the Monitor Mode under unit details in THOR. To make sure Auto Call Home is
running, check the bottom right corner of the THOR software, it should indicate
“Auto Call Home Running”. If Auto Call Home is not running, see Step 11 above.

13 To test the setup, with the Micromate in monitoring mode, create an event by
shaking the geophone. Make sure the unit displays “Connecting” and “Transferring
Data”. Also make sure that Auto Call Home receives the file.
Additional Options
To Schedule Monitoring
The Micromate can be configured to start or stop monitoring, or to call home at specific time during the day or
week. This daily or weekly schedule can also repeat. For more information, please refer to the Micromate user
manual.
