Anyone have any experience working with the new Red Lion GMHSPA cell modem, just got one for an application on a Graphite 15".

Thanks,

I can't say I do. But was looking at those as well.

I have used Red Lion's other cellular devices but nothing that attached directly to the HMI. Their documentation for the module is lacking.

If you've purchased it already I'd like your impressions when you get it up and running.

einnh, I did manage to get it up and working, once I figured out the IP address it worked right away. I was able to view the display pages remotely via the Cell modem. Although it takes about 20 seconds to load a page. I will be speaking with tech support to find out if I can speed this up at all. But considering its a cell modem running at 115kbs I guess its not too bad. I will keep you posted.

Thanks,,

Edm.
