located
on the
modem's rear panel, to the position
nearest the DB-25 jack

call-waiting state and
monitor the telephone line for
an
incoming

will pick
up
the call and assume auto-answer,
10-bit
word,

operation.

switch is only read (active)
when power is freshly
applied
to
a
DC-2212

.
Be
sure you
tum the modem's power OFF, then ON
again,
whenever you
change the position
of
the
switch.

the
cu
command:
cu phone number -s 1200
(ENTER)
where
phone number
is the number
you want dialed and the

is the baud
rate
selected.

call out on Channel
B, type:

-I
/dev/cul1
(ENTER)

connected appears, you can begin communications. See your
TRS-XENIX
system's
documentation
for
more
information on
using
a
modem with
TRS-XENIX
.
Note:

will assume
tone dialing. If
your
phone
system
requires pulse
(rotary)
dialing,
insert
"
r" before
entering
the phone number.
