Using the Integral Modem
The DSU/CSU’s integral modem enables your
DSU/CSU to communicate with remote devices to display
alarm messages or to function as the user interface.
The Call command, available from the Control branch
of the menu tree, provides the following functions to
initiate and terminate modem connections:
•Pass – Initiates a call through the integral modem
to access a far-end DSU/CSU’s front panel from
your DSU/CSU’s front panel (or PC attached to the
COM port).
•Dial – Initiates a call through the integral modem to
a printer, ASCII terminal, or PC. Sets up a
semipermanent connection to route alarm messages
to the specified destination.
•Disconnect – Disconnects an active modem
connection.
•Change Directory – Allows entry of phone
numbers into the internal phone directories.
For additional information, refer to the User Interface
Configuration Options section in Appendix C,
Configuration Options.

Entering Numbers in the Phone Directories

The DSU/CSU has five general directories
(1 through 5) and one alarm directory (A). Use the general
directories to store phone numbers for remote devices
