Use the dial command to do the following:

•Cause a DATAPHONE II 2296 modem to dial another V.32 modem via the Shared Diagnostic Unit 48A

•Cause a DATAPHONE II 2656SC Data Service Unit (DSU) to call other DSUs via a master Shared Diagnostic Unit (SDU)

•Cause a COMSPHERE 3600 Series DBM to call another DBM or V.32

•Cause a COMSPHERE 3400/4400 Series modem with a DBM to call another 3400/4400 Series DBM

•Cause a local COMSPHERE 3800 Series modem to call another 3800 Series modem

•Drop a line

For all supported devices, you can specify a telephone number or a directory number from which a telephone number can be retrieved; and you can indicate whether or not an existing call should be disrupted (i.e., initiate dialing even though the device is already in Data mode).

For DATAPHONE II devices, you can specify an alternate speed at which the call should be originated.

For most commands, NMS enables you to specify the destination for the command's results and schedule its execution. If the last page of the input form cannot accommodate the Destination for results and Schedule execution fields, an additional page is provided. For a complete description of these fields, refer to Chapter 1, Introduction.
