INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 Installation Mount the device to the DIN rail Instructions on how to mount the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 to a DIN rail. Position the device at the DIN rail as seen in the following diagram. There are two snap-in hooks at the outer edge of the DIN rail groove of the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1.
Page 20
Prior to the installation, switch the power of the cabinet off and secure it against being switched on again. Insert the flat tip screwdriver into the flexible snap-in hook of the INSYS Mo- dem 56k small EU 2.1 as shown in the diagram.
Page 21
While you hold the plastic spring of the snap-in hook stretched apart, pull the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 away from the DIN rail. Unhook the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 and take it off, perpendicularly to the DIN rail.
Initial Operation This chapter describes how to activate the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1, i.e. how to connect the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 to a PC, to a telephone network and how to test it.

You have two possibilities to operate and configure the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1. In general, the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 is configured and operated via AT com- mands. You can enter these commands yourself with the help of a terminal program and the AT command reference.
AT&W. Some settings are automatically saved immedi- ately. We still recommend to send the command AT&W to the INSYS Mo- dem 56k small EU 2.1 as your last configuration step to ensure that all set- tings are stored safely and are available for the next restart.

12.1 Establishing or Accepting a Data Connection The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 can call another modem via the phone line and es- tablish a data connection. After dialling a phone number, the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 synchronises with the called modem and opens a data connection with the transmis- sion speed, which is currently set at the serial interface.

Functions INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 In order to configure the number of ring tones after which the INSYS Mo- dem 56k small EU 2.1 answers and accepts the connection, use the ATS0=<n> command Replace <n> with the number of ring tones.
(according to the character string "AT"), the parameters for the interface of the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 will be checked and adjusted, if necessary. This is the reason why the baud rate can not be stored with the command AT&W, as the INSYS Mo- dem 56k small EU 2.1 will immediately adjust its interface to the current parameters of...
A direct configuration with the HSComm is not intended. The AT command to define a fixed baud rate can be sent to the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 via the entry field "Initialization string" (page 26, Figure 5, position 13).
The error correction and the data compression are in this case switched off as well. If the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 is operated in this mode, not all functions will be available. The remote configuration and all functions for which a password is required, will no longer be available.
When the buffer is emptied sufficiently for the INSYS Mo- dem 56k small EU 2.1 to be able to receive data again, the CTS line is set to "high". Re- versely, the application can also indicate to the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 to inter- rupt the data flow.
INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 Functions 12.5.2 Software data flow control (XON/XOFF) When the input buffer of the modem exceeds a certain fill state, the modem will insert an XOFF character into the data stream to the application. This character will cause the application to send no more data.
12.6 Error correction The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 masters the V.42 error correction protocol including the Microcom Networking Protocol Levels 2/3/4 (MNP2, MNP3, MNP4) and the data throughput optimization MNP10. The V.42 error correction includes the protocols LAPM (Link Access Procedure for Modem) and MNP4.
Direct configuration with the HSComm is not intended. The AT command to define a fixed baud rate can be sent to the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 via the entry field "Initialization string" (page 26, Figure 5, position 13).
Functions INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 12.8 Automatic Dial-Up Delay The standard TBR21 applies to all public phone networks in EC countries (Belgium, Den- mark, German, Finland, France, Greece, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Nether- lands, Austria, Portugal, Sweden, Spain), as well as in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland.
12.9.2 Saving the Configuration If the configuration of the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 has been adapted to the re- quirements of the user, it is possible to save the settings in user profile 0 or 1. Changes of the configuration get lost after a RESET or restart, if the have not been saved before.
12.10 Reset The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 can be reset in three ways: By interrupting the supply voltage for a short time, by connecting the terminal "Reset" to the terminal GND, by us- ing an AT command and with the help of the HSComm software.
INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1. The firmware of the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 can be updated to add more func- tions to the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 or to improve the existing functions. A firm- ware update can be performed with the help of a terminal program that supports ASCII uploads (e.g.

INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 Waste Disposal Waste Disposal 14.1 Repurchasing of Legacy Systems According to the new WEEE guidelines, the repurchasing and recycling of legacy systems for our clients is regulated as follows: Please send those legacy systems to the following address, carriage prepaid:...
AT Command Reference INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 AT Command Reference Each AT command starts with the letters AT and ends with a carriage return (CR). Both, upper and lower case letters are accepted; however, the leading letters must either be AT or at.
Send "break" to the other INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 In case of non-error-corrected connections, the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 sends a break signal to the other INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1. The length of the signal is: the specified parameter times 1/10 of a second.
Page 46
INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 goes off-hook and tries to establish a connection to the other INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 (without dialling). The behav- iour of the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 depends on the activation of the line current detection (refer to ATX command).

INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 terminates the connection display- ing the message: NO ANSWER. If busy tone detection is enabled, the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 the dial-up indi- cating the message: BUSY. If a response tone from the other INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 is received during the waiting period, a connection is established.

0 without hearing a dialling tone. After 0 has been dialled via: D0, dialling tone recognition can be switched on again using the parameter: W. The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 thus waits for the dialling tone and continues with the rest of the dial-up (via: 12345) only after hearing the dialling tone.

The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 loads the factory default settings from the internal non-volatile memory. With this, the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 can be taken into a defined initial state. AT&F also overwrites a part of the S registry.
Page 50
AT\K Break control The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 reacts to a break (receive path OFF for a certain amount of time), which it receives from another modem or from the PC, or from the command AT\B according to the parameters.
Page 51
(Continuation) Like AT\K0 AT\K4 AT\K5 INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 inserts a break into the data transmit- ted to the other modem 2. Situation The INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1 has been changed to command mode during a data connection via an escape sequence +++. In this condition, the AT\B command will send a break to the other modem.

The command determines, which message group is sent to the PC by the INSYS Modem 56k small EU 2.1. This is important for PABXs, as a leading 0 or 9 must often be dialled before a dialling tone is heard on the line. Blind Dialling (dialling without detecting the dialling tone) is activated or deactivated according to the parameter.
