Navigating the Configuration Menu Tree

This section describes the modem menu tree structure. It explains how to access
parameters using the front panel control keys.

Menu Structure

The menu structure consists of fifteen categories, which appear in capital letters.
Example: CONFIGURATION OPT'S.
Each category has parameters (example: Mode). Some parameters are
configurable; others indicate modem and call status. Most parameters have
selectable options. Options affect the modem's operating characteristics.
You can view parameters and options in the front panel LCD display. If options can
be set, the following indicators display:
• An equals sign (=) indicates the currently selected option of the parameter
• A colon (:) indicates that the displayed option is available but is not selected
Each parameter has a default option:
• Some defaults are determined by the assigned factory-preset option sets
(preconfigured option sets). These defaults are exclusive to an option set.
• Other factory options are not exclusive to an option set and they always have
the same default setting, regardless of which factory-preset option set you use.
Refer to Appendix A, Figure A-1, or to the Reference Card to see the complete menu
tree structure, including the available and default options.

Setting Configuration Options from the Front Panel

The four control keys (Figures 3-2 and 3-3) let you access parameters and options.
Table 3-2 describes control key functions.
