Basic Options

The following screens are used to configure the modem’s basic operating conditions.

ONLINE OPTIONS. The following screens are used to configure the online operation of the modem:

LINE TYPE OPTIONS. Use the Æ and Enter buttons to select from the following line types: dial-up (PSTN), two-wire leased line originate or answer, and four-wire leased line originate or answer.

ERROR CORRECTION OPTIONS. Use the Æ and Enter but- tons to turn error correction on or off, or to select automatic error correction. Same as the &E0, &E1, and &E2 commands.

FLOW CONTROL OPTIONS. Use the Æ and Enter buttons to select no flow control, hardware flow control, or software flow control. Same as the &E3, &E4, and &E5 commands.

DIALING OPTIONS. The following screens are used to configure dialing options or to dial manually.

TONE/PULSE. Use the Æ and Enter buttons to select between DTMF tone dialing and pulse dialing. Same as the T and P com- mands.

BLIND/SMART DIAL OPTIONS. Use the Æ and Enter buttons to select blind dialing, in which the modem sends the OK, CON- NECT, RING, NO CARRIER, ERROR and NO ANSWER mes- sages to the computer and does not look for a dial tone or busy signal, or smart dialing, in which the modem sends all messages to the computer, including NO DIALTONE and BUSY. Same as the X0 and X4 commands.

DIAL NUMBER. Use the front panel buttons to enter a phone number and dial it. To scroll through a list of digits and charac- ters, press the ÇÅ and È buttons. To go to the next position, press the Æ button. To back up or to exit without dialing, press the Æ button several times. To dial the number, press the Enter button. Same as the D command.

DTR DIALING. Use the Æ and Enter buttons to enable or dis- able DTR dialing. DTR dialing is popular in synchronous applica- tions. In DTR dialing, the modem automatically dials the number stored in memory location 0 when it detects a high DTR (Data Terminal Ready) signal on the RS-232 interface. The DTR signal must remain high for the duration of the call. To store the DTR dialing number, use the &Z0= command or the ENTER PHONE #0 menu option.

Note: Plug and Play does not function if DTR dialing is enabled. DTR is used during Plug and Play, and DTR dialing interferes with it.
