Figure 1-1. ATLAS Remote Access Application FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The Modem-16 Module installs into any available slot in the ATLAS 800 chassis. The status of the module itself, as well as the circuits to which it interfaces, can be viewed from the ATLAS front panel. Additional status information is available via the terminal menu, accessible through either a VT-100 terminal connected to the ATLAS Base Unit’s control port, or via a Telnet session established through the...
Basic Hayes AT command set capability Digital Resources • Sixteen digital resources per modem module • 56 Kbps and 64 Kbps data rates • Individual enable / disable of digital resources available in the system Modem-16 Module User Manual 61200181L1-1...
The Modem-16 Module provides no external interfaces. Both the network and customer interfaces are provided on other ATLAS components. Information is passed to and from the Modem-16 Module via ATLAS’ internal bussing scheme. See Figure 1-2 for an illustration of the Modem-16 Module.
Remove the cover plate (corresponding to the slot in which the Modem-16 Module will be installed) from the ATLAS chassis rear panel. Slide the Modem-16 Module into the ATLAS chassis until the module is posi- tioned firmly against the front of the ATLAS unit.
Failed Self-Test POWER-UP AND INITIALIZATION When the Modem-16 Module is inserted into the ATLAS chassis, the front panel STATUS indicator blinks red, yellow, and green for a time. Previously configured settings for the Modem-16 Module are automatically restored upon power-up.
Operation Chapter 3 OVERVIEW You can configure and control the Modem-16 Module from several sources, as shown in Table 3-1. The ATLAS User Manual provides detailed instructions on operating each of the supported management approaches. The remainder of this chapter describes the menu items available for managing the Modem-16 Module using the terminal menu.
Displays the module type currently installed in the slot or the module type you plan to install in the slot. If a Modem-16 Module is installed, the Type field auto- matically defaults to M56K-16 (the Modem-16 Module). You can use this field to preconfigure the system before installing modules by specifying the module that you want to install into each slot.

Displays the number of receiver overruns which occurred on the digital resource during the current call. A receiver overrun occurs when the client device transmits data too fast for the Modem-16 Module digital resource to keep up. This causes data to be lost. Once the call is disconnected, this parameter is reset.
