Configure Branch

Misc

The Miscellaneous configuration options determine specifics for various functions, including network management parameters and remote modem access.

Table 8-8 shows each Misc (Miscellaneous) configuration option as it appears on the LCD, with the Async Dial factory default setting (the default value if the modem is just being installed) shown following the colon (:) on the first line and with all available selections listed on the second line. Following this is a description of the configuration option, a description of the available selections, and any equivalent AT commands.

Miscellaneous Configuration Options

StrapsWhenDisc: No_Change

Nxt No_Change Reload RelodNoATChg

Straps When Disconnected. Determines whether or not configuration options in the Active (Saved) configuration area are reloaded to Active (Operating) when a disconnect occurs. This is useful in modem pooling applications.

No Change ± Configuration options do not change upon disconnect.

Reload ± The Active (Operating) configuration area, which controls modem operation, is reloaded from the Active (Saved) configuration area when a disconnect occurs. This is useful in modem pooling applications where it is desirable to start the modem from a known condition after every call. This allows multiple users to issue AT commands to change the modem's operation for their particular call.

Reload, No AT Change ± This has the same effect as Reload, except that it becomes impossible to change this configuration option with an AT command, and the command buffer is cleared so that /A (Repeat Last Command) has no effect.

NOTE: If Reload or RelodNoATChg is selected, the following AT commands are disabled although the OK result code appears when these commands are issued:

AT&F0. Loads Async Dial into Active(Operating)

AT&F1. Loads Sync Dial into Active (Operating)

AT&F2. Loads Sync Leased (Answer) into Active (Operating)

AT&F3. Loads UNIX Dial into Active(Operating)

AT&F4. Loads Sync Leased (Originate) into Active (Operating)

AT&F5. Loads Cellular(Mobile) into Active (Operating)

AT&F6. Loads Cellular (PSTN) into Active (Operating)

AT&W0. Write Active(Operating) to Active(Saved)

AT&W1. Write Active(Operating) to Customer 1

AT&W2. Write Active(Operating) to Customer 2

AT&Zn=x. Store directory numbers

Factory default templates do not affect the setting of StrapsWhenDisc.

AT command equivalent is S88=n.

Speaker Control: OnUntilCarr

Nxt OnUntilCarr Off On

Speaker Control. Determines if the speaker is Off, On until carrier signal is received by the modem, or On all the time.

The factory default is OnUntilCarr.

NOTE: Speaker Control can also be temporarily set using the Control branch; however, a reset or power cycle will restore the modem to the Speaker Control and Speaker Volume configuration option settings.

AT command equivalent is Mn.
