Tone dialing (global)
The
tone
command is only used when you have programmed the DC-2212 to
automatically originate a call. When used here and not in the telephone number to be
dialed, this command is a global instruction. If you program the modem to dial a
telephone number, but do not specify the method for dialing, the modem examines this
global area to determine what signaling type it
should
use.
You can examine the global
signaling
type by looking in the parameter listing
at
the
reply line
PULSE DI AL: N:
"No,
do not pulse dial. Tone
dial."
R.,
r
Rotary (pulse) dialing
(default)
At initial power-up
,
the
rotary, or
pulse,
signaling global
command is
automatically
in
effect, or defaulted. This means the modem will auto-originate a
call
for
you
using
pulse signaling, unless
you
have specified otherwise
while
programming the dialer
memory.
You can examine the global signaling type by looking at the listing line
PULSE
DIAL:Y: "Yes, pulse dial."
S,s
Slow dialing speed
(default)
When operating in
automatic
originate mode,
you
not only have the
option
to
select
the
signaling type, but
also
the
signaling speed.
Slow signaling
speed
is defaulted on a freshly powered-on modem. While in the slow
speed mode, the modem pulse dials at 10 pulses per
second
and tone dials
at
5 digits
per second
.
Table 2 on page 26 gives the rates for
slow speed
dialing:
You can tell what speed rate the modem will dial by
examining
reply line
SLOW
DIAL:Y:
"Yes, slow
dial."
