Table C-6
(4 of 5)User Interface Configuration Options
Modem Type: Async
Next Async Sync Prev
Modem Type. Specifies whether the port uses synchronous or asynchronous communication if the modem port is
configured as the management link.
NOTE: This configuration option is not available if the Modem Use configuration option is set to ASCII. In this case, the
modem port is always asynchronous.
Modem Rate: 2.4
Next 1.2 2.4 Prev
Modem Port Rate. Configures the bit rate for the modem port.
1.2 – Sets the bit rate at 1200 bps.
2.4 – Sets the bit rate at 2400 bps.
MChar Len: 8
Next 7 8 Prev
Modem Character Length. Configures the character length (number of data bits) for the modem port. This does not
include the start bit (always 1) or the stop bits; 8 is the factory default.
NOTE: This option must be set to 8 to perform PC emulation or pass-through operations.
MParity: None
Next None Even Odd Prev
Modem Parity. Configures the parity for the modem port. None is the factory default.
MStop Bits: 1
Next 1 2 Prev
Modem Port Stop Bits. Configures the number of stop bits for the modem port; 1 is the factory default.
LSpaceDsc: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
Long Space Disconnect. Specifies how the modem disconnects a call. This makes call disconnecting more robust and
prevents invalid data at the remote modem if the call is disconnected. To be effective, the remote modem must be
configured to disconnect if it detects continuous space.
MInActTm: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
Modem Port Inactivity Timeout. Specifies whether the modem port disconnects after a period of inactivity specified by the
MDiscTm configuration option.
Enab – The modem port disconnects after the period of inactivity specified by the MDiscTm configuration option.
Disab – The modem port does not disconnect due to inactivity.
MDiscTm: 5
Next Up Down Save Prev
Modem Port Disconnect Time. Specifies the period of time (1 to 60 minutes) before the modem port disconnects due to
inactivity. (The MInActTm configuration option must be set to Enab.) Use the left or right arrow key to position the cursor
on the digit you want to change. Use the Function keys (Up or Down) to increment or decrement the digit.
Up – Increments the time delay.
Down – Decrements the time delay.
Save – Stores the time delay for use with inactivity disconnects.
