New/Edit Dial String
The New/Edit Dial String screen is displayed when the user clicks either New or Edit on the
Destination Dial Strings screen. The New/Edit Dial String screen allows the user to configure or
change the settings related to dial string to which alerts are to be sent. The screen displayed either
to configure a new dial string or to edit an existing dial string is the same, except that when editing
an existing dial string, the current settings for that dial string are displayed.
If a dial string is changed to null (cleared), then when the OK button is clicked, that entry in the dial
string list displays as Not Configured.
After completing this screen, click OK to return to the Destination Dial Strings screen.
Destination Dial String
When the BMC sends a dial string to a modem, it automatically precedes it with the currently
defined Modem Init String sequence.
Valid dialing digits are 0-9, *, #, A, B, C, D. The BMC can also recognize the following special
characters:
P – dial using pulse. Dialing digits following the P will be sent using pulse dialing.
T – dial using tone. Dialing digits after the T will be sent using touch tones.
R – reverse frequencies. Forces the modem to dial out at the answering frequency.
S=n – dial a pre-stored phone number n.
W – wait for dial tone.
@ - wait for quiet (answer).
, (comma) – pause 2 seconds.
; (Semi-colon) – return to command mode after dialing.
! (exclamation point) – flash the switch hook
