Modem Init Strings and Hangup Strings

This section describes the format of the modem:

Init Strings

Hangup Strings

To allow the RMON MultiProbe Module to communicate with a modem or a serial data switch, use the modem Init String and Hangup String. The strings contain embedded commands to control how the module interacts with a remote device through the serial interface. Commands are represented as 2-character sequences beginning with the ^ character.

Table 3-5 describes the modem Init Strings and Hangup Strings that the RMON MultiProbe Module supports.

Note: Command characters are case-sensitive.

Table 3-5. Modem Init Strings and Hangup Strings

Command

Result

 

 

^s

Sends string that follows, which is terminated by the

 

next command or the end of string.

 

 

^c

Delays for the number of seconds that follows. Discard

 

any data received instead of storing it in a buffer for

 

parsing.

 

 

^t

Sets timeout to the value represented by the decimal

 

digits that follow. Thedefault timeout is 20 seconds. The

 

timeout may be overridden by a smaller serial Timeout

 

configured for the associated serial interface.
