DCP Operation
Remote DCP access is accomplished using either the primary or secondary channel (if available) of the VF line. Using the primary channel gives a much faster response time due to the higher data rate, but it also interrupts data flow because primary data is stopped when Remote mode is active. Once Remote mode is terminated, the primary channel is automatically made available for data transmission.
Unlike primary channel communications, the secondary channel operates at a slower data rate and does not interrupt data flow. (V.34, V.32 terbo, V.32bis, V.32, and TMp are the only modulations available for the secondary channel.)
NOTE
When initiating a Remote function from a TMp tributary modem, primary channel operation is not available. Also, if the tributary modem is not on the control modem's poll list, the error message No Trib Session appears when the function is executed.
To access the Remote branch, make the following selections:

The address field (xxx) displays the network management address of the modem to be accessed by the Remote function. The valid address field range is from 001 to 256.
To increment digits within the address field (xxx), use the and
