Black Box LRA001A-R2 manual Sample Dialer Script, 254, Wait msec string Wait msec string speed

ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

Used to signal a connect state transition to the PPP state machine. For example:

send “ATDT 555-6789\r”

wait 45000 “CONNECT” speed

status up

Once the connection is made, the status up command will start PPP.

wait

Used to indicate a waiting period before the next action is taken. The three forms are:

wait msec

wait msec string

wait msec string speed

The first form waits for a specified time period in milliseconds.

The second form waits for a specified string; if not seen within the specified time, the command is deemed to have failed.

The third form will expect the specified string. It will then pick a decimal number following that string, and set the port speed to that number.

The same macro strings used in the send command may also be used in the wait command ($PHONE, $LOGIN_NAME, $LOGIN_PWD) in place of the string parameter.

NOTE

If a command fails, dialing is considered unsuccessful, and the script will be terminated. The next retry starts the script from the beginning.

B.3 Sample Dialer Script

Consider the sample dialer script:

control down wait 100 control up speed 38400

send “AT&FS=1&C1&D2&Q5&W\r” wait 3000 “OK”

send “ATDT8,555-4141\r” wait 45000 “CONNECT” status up

The action initiated by each command is:

•control down—turn off DTR to reset the modem

•wait 100—give the system 100 milliseconds to respond

•control up—turn DTR back on

•speed 38400—set DTE port speed
