Selecting Programmed Option Sets

Option sets make it easy to use a modem with common applications, including:

Asynchronous and synchronous answering

Asynchronous and synchronous dialing

Leased line with dial restoral operation

Four sets of options are stored in nonvolatile memory. If none is appropriate to an application, you can customize an option set, and save it in nonvolatile memory.

Refer to Chapter 4, Configuring the Modem, for more information on option sets.

Automatic Calling Interfaces (ACUs)

The modem supports three automatic calling interfaces (also known as Auto-Call Units). ACUs let you execute functions directly from a keyboard.

AT ACU

The asynchronous AT ACU is compatible with the industry-standard AT command set. AT Commands provide a standard modem communications interface, allowing you to configure and operate your modem from a terminal or PC keyboard.

Using the AT-compatible command set (AT and AT&), you can, for example, dial and receive phone calls. Telenetics’ extended AT command set (AT*) includes other important parameters used in configuring advanced modem features.

Refer to Chapter 3, Getting Started, and Chapter 5, Using the AT Automatic Calling Interface, to learn more about theAT ACU andAT command syntax.

V.25bis ACU

For sync or async auto-calling, use the ITU-T V.25bis compliant ACU.

With either the AT or V.25bis ACU, you can store, dial, or change up to nine phone numbers in the modem's electronic telephone book, directly from your terminal.

Refer to Chapter 3, Automatic Calling Interfaces, in the 326X Series Modem

Reference Guide, for details.

LPDA2 ACU

The LPDA2 feature lets you use IBM dial and leased line restoral applications with LPDA2 Dial and Disconnect commands. LPDA2 allows Netview and other IBM applications, like POS outbound dialing applications, to control dialing.

In dial applications, LPDA2 eliminates the need for additional ports and equipment that had been required to support external 801 auto-dialing equipment in IBM environments.
