Ultratec INTELE-MODEM manual Answering with Intele-Menu commands, Changing communication settings

Answering with Intele–Menu commands ________________________

You may answer both computer and TTY calls the same way. The Intele–Modem searches incoming signals and switches to either 300-baud ASCII code or 45-baud Baudot code, whichever is correct. If the caller uses ASCII code, the Intele–Modem will be in answer mode at half-duplex.

1.Turn your computer on.

2.Start up your communications software.

3.Turn your Intele–Modem on. The POWER, BDT, and LO lights on the front panel of your Intele–Modem will go on.

4.Follow your software instructions to get into terminal mode.

5.Press the Escape Key and the Spacebar. The Intele–Modem responds with the Command Line:

Command (Press ? for help):

If the phone is ringing, the SIG light will go on with each ring. The modem will also display the response RING on the monitor. Type A (the answer command). Your Intele–Modem will pick up the phone and send an ASCII answer tone for a few seconds. You’ll see the OH, ASC, and HI lights all come on. If it doesn’t connect with another ASCII computer or TTY, it will wait to receive a Baudot code. The ASC and HI lights will go out and the BDT and LO lights will come on.

6.If the CD (carrier detect) light goes on and you read CONNECT on your monitor, your Intele–Modem has connected with a computer, and is communicating in ASCII code.

You won’t know for sure if you’ve connected in Baudot code until the other person types a message to you. When he or she starts typing, the SIGNAL light will go on. You’ll read CONNECT TTY on your monitor, which means your Intele–Modem has connected with a TTY, and is communicating in Baudot code.

7.Continue your conversation.

8.To hang up, type the Escape Key then the H Command.

Changing communication settings _____________________________

To change communication settings during a call, such as changing from half-duplex to full- duplex, use the Escape Key to enter command mode. When you see the Command Line, type the letter of the setting you want to change. If you don’t know which command to use, type ? to use the menu. After you change the setting, use the Enter Key to return to on- line mode.
