V.25BIS - CRN Dial

This command allows you to dial a telephone number. The basic dialling command is:

CRN followed by the telephone number.

For example:

To dial the number (09) 111-1234

Type: CRN091111234 <E>

You can use hyphens, spaces or parentheses. They will be ignored by the modem, but they will make it easier to read the command line.

For example:

CRN (09) 111-1234

Dial modifiers may be included in the dial command.

< pause

This modifier orders the modem to pause before dialling the rest of the phone number. This is useful when using a PABX and you need to dial a number to connect to an outside line.

For example: If you must dial 0 to connect to an outside line before dialling (09) 111-1234

Type: CRN0<091111234 <E>

The length of the pause is determined by the value in S Register 8.

UK Modems. If your PABX requires more than four seconds to obtain a line, add no more than one extra < to your dial command.
