GLOSSARY

ANSI display protocol. A standard set of escape sequences, established by ANSI (the American National Standards Institute), used by many display terminal devices to transmit or receive display control functions, such as cursor movement and color or graphics configuration parameters.

Asynchronous data communications. A method of communicating data in which each “character” (a 7 or 8 bit data word) is sent or received separately at a selectable data transfer rate, and is framed by extra bits preceding and following the character. Various error- checking methods use the total bit-count to determine whether the character received at one end of the data path is the same as the one sent at the other end. Also called asynchronous mode, this method, as opposed to synchronous mode, does not use a clock signal to meter data. (Since the 7400B Data Module operates only in asynchronous mode, synchronous mode is not defined in this glossary.) See also data options.

AT command set. A de facto industry-standard set of commands used for configuration and operation of DCE devices or modems. The AT (Attention) command set originated with Hayes Microcomputer Products, Inc. The AT&T 7400B Data Module uses a subset of the full AT command set.

Command files. Files created for or by data communications software running on a PC that can be used to execute a sequence of commands to complete a task, such as performing an automatic log in to a specific remote device. Also called script files.

Command line. A string of one or more valid and compatible AT commands typed on one line with any applicable arguments. Most command lines begin with the AT prefix and end with a carriage return (issued by pressing [ Enter ]).

Command mode. An operating mode in which the 7400B Data Module looks at all characters coming from its associated terminal device and attempts to interpret them as commands. See also on-line mode.

Communications parameters. See data options.

Configuration profiles. See option profiles.

Data Communications Equipment. (DCE, also Data Circuit- terminating Equipment) The equipment that provides the functions required to establish, maintain and terminate a data communications connection. The DCE also provides any required signal conversion for communication between the data terminal equipment (DTE) and the telephone line or data circuit.
