3.4Phone Number Memory Commands

The modem can store up to two telephone numbers in nonvolatile memory. You can store the numbers with the DsNd command, dial them with the Nd command, link them so that one will be automatically dialed after the other with the NdNe command, or list them with the L command.

DsNd

Store a Phone Number

 

s = phone number

 

d = 0 or 1

 

Default: none

 

You can store a telephone number command string of up to 60 characters in the modem’s

 

phone number memory. You can store two of these 60-character strings using the DsNd

 

command. The memory locations are labeled N0 and N1.

 

Store a command line by typing it as you would any other command, appending the

 

appropriate Nd memory location.

 

For example, the tone-dialed number 1-612-555-1212 is stored at memory location N0 by

 

typing ATDT16125551212N0 and pressing ENTER. The number is not dialed with this

 

store command.

 

After storing a number, check to see that it has been stored correctly by typing ATL and

 

pressing ENTER.

 

When you store a phone number, you store the entire command string, so you can

 

effectively create a macro for each number. For example, if you know a particular number

 

needs to have extended result codes, detect busy or dial tone, error correction, XON/XOFF

 

flow control, pacing, and data compression enabled, the command to store the entire

 

command string at location N0 is ATX4&E1&E5&E13&E15DT16125551212N0.

Nd

Dial a Stored Number

 

d = 0 or 1

 

Default: none

 

You can automatically dial a telephone number that is stored in the modem’s number

 

memory by typing ATNn, where n = 0 or 1. For example, you can dial a number stored at N0

 

by typing ATN0 in terminal mode and pressing ENTER.

Warning: Do not include the letter D in this command, or the stored number will be erased.

NdNe

Number Linking

 

d = 0 or 1

 

e = 1 or 0

 

Default: none

 

Number linking allows the modem to dial a second stored number if the first stored number

 

is busy. (See the DsNd command.) This command is useful when a computer can be

 

accessed through more than one phone number. However, it cannot be used with blind

 

dialing, since busy signals would not be detected.

 

To link the number in memory location N0 to the number in N1, type ATN0N1 and press

 

ENTER. You can cycle back and forth between two numbers by linking them several times

 

in one command: ATN0N1N0N1N0N1<CR>. The only limit on the number of times the

 

modem can cycle between two numbers is the 60-character maximum allowed in a

 

command line.
