Channel RS-232C can communicate with external devices directly and also with remote communication devices
using modem. When connecting modem, communication type of RS-232C must be set to 'modem' with Frame Editor,
and when not using modem, it must be set to null modem. But when the channel mode is as interlocked, modem can
not be connected because it is operated as in null modem even if set to modem.
