Table C-4. User Interface Configuration Options (3 of 6)

ComConnected:
Next Edit Clear Prev
Carrier Communication Port Connect Indication String. Specifies the communication
port’s connect indication string. When you make a connection or the DSU/CSU
automatically makes a connection (dial-out alarms or traps) through the communication
port, this string determines that the connection has been established. The connect
indication string is an ASCII text string and may be up to 20 characters in length. If the
connect indication string is not received within 1 minute, it will time-out the connection. If
the connect indication string is NULL, the communication port’s receive data stream is
not searched and a transition in the Carrier Detect (CD) lead is used to determine that a
connection has been established.
Edit – Allows you to edit and/or display the case-sensitive connect indication string
using the generic text string entry screen.
Clear – Allows you to clear the connect indication string. The connect indication string is
set to a null string.
NOTE: This configuration option is not available if the ComExtDev configuration
option is set to AT or the communication port is disabled.
ComEscapeSeq:
Next Edit Clear Prev
Carrier Communication Port Escape Sequence. Specifies the communication port’s
escape sequence. Once the external device connection has been established, either
you or the DSU/CSU can command the external device to disconnect. Before doing so,
you may need to send the escape sequence out to switch the external device into
command mode. The escape sequence is an ASCII text string and may be up to 20
characters in length. If the escape sequence is NULL, no escape sequence is sent out.
Edit – Allows you to edit and/or display the escape sequence using the generic text
string entry screen.
Clear – Allows you to clear the escape sequence. The escape sequence is set to a null
string.
NOTE: This configuration option is not available if the ComExtDev configuration
option is set to AT or the communication port is disabled.
ComEscDel: None
Next None 0.2s 0.4s 0.6s 0.8s 1.0s Prev
Carrier Communication Port Escape Sequence Delay. Specifies the delay used while
sending the communication port escape sequence. Use the communication port escape
delay to specify the delay before sending the first character of the escape sequence and
the delay after the last character of the escape sequence. During the delay, no data is
sent out the communication port.
None – No communication port escape sequence delay.

X.X

s – The delay used during the communication port escape sequence (where

X.X

is
0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, or 1.0 seconds).
NOTES: ComEscDel must be configured for a delay greater than or equal to the
escape guard time required by the external device.
This configuration option is not available if the ComExtDev configuration
option is set to AT or the communication port is disabled.
