ATCommands

AT&D Controlling Data Terminal Ready

The DTR signal is used to indicate to the modem whether your computer is ready to communicate.

The &D command will only take effect when the DTR option switch is in the UP position and %S0 is selected. (See the Dumb Mode Section for details.)

Options

AT&D0

The modem ignores the DTR signal and acts as if it is asserted (the modem

 

assumes the computer is ready to communicate).

AT&D1

The modem will return to on line command state if DTR is lowered during a

 

connection.

AT&D2

The modem will hang up, return to local command state and disable auto-

 

answer whilst DTR is low (is not asserted).

 

To enable auto-answer, the DTR signal must be asserted.

 

The computer must assert DTR before dialling or answering may commence.

AT&D3

If DTR is lowered, the modem will hang up, return to local command state

 

and initialise itself with the values stored in the &Y profile.

AT&D4

The modem will hang up, return to local command state and go off-hook. It

 

will remain off-hook whilst DTR is low.

S Register 25 determines how long DTR must be low before the modem recognises it as such.

S Register 57 determines how long DTR must be high before the modem recognises it as such.

Range

0-4
