V.8/V.8bis Commands

Command: +A8E

V.8 and V.8bis Operation Controls

Description:

This command is defined for two conditions: as a parameter while the

 

modem is on-hook, and as an action command while the modem is off-

 

hook. If enabled, V.8 negotiation does not preclude simultaneous

 

implementation of other negotiation means (e.g., V.8bis, V.18, V.32bis

 

Annex A).

 

 

This command is a compound parameter if issued while the modem is on-

 

hook, used to precondition V.8 and V.8bis originating and answering

 

operation. It is issued by the DTE before the Dial (D) or Answer (A)

 

command, regardless of the state of the +FCLASS parameter.

 

This command is an action command if issued while the modem is off-

 

hook, to (re)start V.8 or V.8bis negotiation. For example, if initial V.8

 

negotiation failed, but subsequent T.30 negotiation indicated V.8 capability,

 

this command may be used to initiate V.8 negotiation.

Defined Values:

<v8o> Decimal number which enables/disables issuance of +A8x

 

indications during modem-controlled V.8 origination negotiation.

 

1

Enable DCE-controlled V.8 origination negotiation without

 

 

+A8x indications. (Default.)

 

6

Enable DCE-controlled V.8 origination negotiation with +A8x

 

 

indications.

 

<v8a>= Decimal number which enables/disables issuance of +A8x

 

indications during modem-controlled V.8 answer negotiation.

 

1

Enable DCE-controlled V.8 answer negotiation without +A8x

 

 

indications. (Default.)

 

5

Enable DCE-controlled V.8 answer negotiation with +A8x

 

 

indications.

 

<v8cf>= Set the V.8 CI signal call function to the hexadecimal octet XY.

 

 

00 (Default.)

 

 

21

 

 

C1

 

<v8b>= Decimal number which enables/disables V.8bis negotiation.

 

0

Disable V.8bis negotiation.

 

1

Enable V.8bis negotiation. (Default.)

 

<cfrange>= “<string of values>“. Applicable only for <v8a>=5.

 

 

Not supported.

 

< protrange >= “<string of values>“. Applicable only for <v8a>=5.

 

 

Not supported.

Default values:

1,1,00,1,0,0

 

 

The ATD and ATA commands behave as specified in V.250, and +A8n

 

indications are not generated by the modem.

 

For subparameter values <v8o>=6 and <v8a>=5, the +A8I indications are

 

issued during the course of the V.8 session to notify the DTE when the

 

relevant V.8 signals are received.

Report Commands:

+A8E? Reports Current or Selected Values.

 

Response: +A8E:

<v8o>,<v8a>,<v8cf>[,<v8b>][,<cfrange>][,<protrange>] Example: +A8E: 1,1,00,1,0,0 For the defaults

+A8E=? Reports Supported Range of Parameter Values.

Response: +A8E: (<v8o> range),(<v8a> range),(v8cf in octets), (<v8b> range),(<cfrange>),(<protrange>)

Example: +A8E: (1,6),(1,5),(0,21,C1),(0,1),(0),(0)
