Switch #6
Maximum Throughput Setting
(Asynchronous Mode/Leased Line/Dial-Up)
In some applications, you may want to dial into services with maximum throughput on. Other applications
require maximum throughput off (e.g., service not supporting error correction, or the V.42 handshake
interferes with logon sequence). Switch #6 controls three important parameters, which in effect enable or
disable maximum throughput (error correction, speed conversion and serial port speed).
Maximum Throughput Enabled
Maximum Throughput Disabled
(Factory Default Setting = UP)
Switch #6
Slave Clocking
(Synchronous Mode/Leased Line/Dial-Up)
In Synchronous mode, DIP-Switch #6 controls the timing at the receive clock. The originating side, in
effect, adjusts to the timing at the remote ("slave") side.
Slave Clocking Enabled
Slave Clocking Disabled
(Factory Default Setting = UP)
Switch #7
Request To Send Forced - "RTS"
(Asynchronous/Synchronous Mode/Leased Line/Dial-Up)
If your computer or terminal uses RTS-CTS protocol (normally used in synchronous applications, but also
if you are using hardware pacing for V.42 error correction or speed conversion), you may want to switch
RTS to function independent of CTS (DIP-Switch #7 UP). For most applications, especially asynchronous,
Switch #7 should be set so that RTS is forced on (DIP-Switch #7 DOWN).
RTS functions Normally
RTS forced ON
(Factory Default Setting = DOWN)
Switch #8
Enable/Disable Command Mode - "Com"
(Asynchronous/Synchronous Mode/Leased/Dial-Up)
In some applications you may want to disable Command mode so that the modem will not recognize or
react to AT or any other commands. This may be true in strictly auto-answer applications where no call
origination will be required. DIP-Switch #8 enables or disables the modem's ability to recognize
Command mode characters. The factory default setting is Command mode enabled.
Disable Command Mode
Enable Command Mode
(Factory Default Setting = DOWN)
Switch #9
No function.
