COMMAND Command to dial-up modem. For example, ATD.
NUM OF RETRIES Specifies the number of dialing retries:
NUM OF RETRIES applies to both the primary and the
alternate numbers as follows:
If the call is not established after dialing the primary
number the specified number of times, the CM-2
attempts to establish the call by dialing the alternate
number (provided the use of an alternate number is
enabled by means of the ALT NUM MODE parameter
below).
If the call cannot be established with the specified
number of redialing attempts on either of the two
numbers, the CM-2 stops the call attempt. When a
new alarm report must be sent, the call attempts are
started again.
The user is notified about a failed call attempt by a
message recorded in the alarm buffer. Separate messages
are provided for each number called.
0 – No redial is attempted if
the call is not established on
the first attempt
1 through 8 – If the call is not
established on the first
attempt, the CM-2 redials the
specified number of times.
WAIT FOR CONNECT Specifies time that the CM-2 waits for an answer after each
dialing attempt. If the called station does not answer
within the specified time, the CM-2 disconnects. If
additional call attempts are allowed, the CM-2 redials 30
