  • Page 9: Basic Adjustments

    Basic Adjustments To make it easier for you to use your modem, two basic settings have been made at the factory, which are suitable for the vast majority of connection systems. These settings can be activated with the “&F” command. In the fax mode or voice mode, the relevant software will carry out control of modem settings for you.

  • Page 11: At Commands: Data Modem

    AT COMMANDS: Chapter 2 DATA MODEM Guidelines for Using AT Commands The modem is programmed with AT commands from the data terminal equipment (computer, PC or terminal) and thus also receives instructions to cover automatic dialling. The communications or fax software (Voice Software as an option) will carry out most of these operations for you, so that in general circumstances you do not need to have a detailed understanding of the commands which are described below.
  • Page 12 Table 1 Modem Commands Standard Commands Answer mode: Modem monitors telephone line Repeat last command line; entered without “AT” Switching between BELL/CCITT Standards at 300 or 1200 bps Enter automatic dialling Controlling repeat of modem commands on screen Determine type of modulation and speed Break off an existing connection Information on Modem product code Loudspeaker volume control...

  • Page 14: At - Attention Code

    AT - Attention Code The AT (Attention) Code, which introduces each command line, can be entered in upper-case or lower-case characters. Several commands (separated by spaces if desired) can be positioned one after another, in one line. A command line must end with the ASCII character which is stored in the S3 or S4 Register (or with both together).
  • Page 15: A/ - Repeat Last Command Line

    A/ - Repeat Last Command Line The A/ command causes the modem to repeat the command line which is stored in the command buffer, e.g. it will dial again, if the line is busy. This command is en- tered without AT and no reply is issued. A command line remains until the modem receives a new command.
  • Page 16: E - Echo Function

    Example of how to set up a Dial Command ATD T0 , P 02212971 With this, a private automatic branch exchange using tone-dialling dials zero, in order to obtain an exchange line. The modem then waits one second for the “line-free” tone so that it can dial the rest of the tele- phone number in pulse-dialling mode Example of the Automatic Dialling Function ATD T0 , P 02212971;H...
  • Page 17: H - Switch Hook Check (Replace Handset)

    H – Switch Hook Check (Replace Handset) The H command will break off the existing telephone line connection (the modem “hangs up”) and the connection to the remote modem is cut off. After the H com- mand, any other commands in the same line are ignored. This command can only be entered after an existing data link has been quitted by using the Esc sequence.
  • Page 18: O - Return To On-Line Operation

    O – Return to On-Line Operation The O command causes the modem to return to Online mode, which can be left temporarily, using the Esc sequence. P – Selecting Pulse Dialling This command specifies pulse-dialling as the standard dialling procedure, until the modem receives a Tone-dialling parameter in a dialling command, or until the T command is received.
  • Page 19: Extended Connect Messages; Making Connections

  • Page 20: Z - Reset/Load A Stored Profile

    Z – Reset/Load a Stored Profile The Zn command is used to carry out a Reset of an active configuration profile. In this procedure, the NVRAM values are written into the relevant Registers and the remaining parameters are changed again to the factory settings. You use the n pa- rameter to select one of the configuration profiles which has been stored with &W (n=0,1).
  • Page 21: G - Guard Tone

    &G – Guard Tone In the Answer mode (upper channel transmission), the unit can send a Guard tone which in certain circumstances is a requirement for connections to the UK from abroad. With Bell 212A and Bell 103, no Guard tone is transmitted. AT&G0,1 Guard tone Off (factory setting) AT&G2...

  • Page 24: Setting The Clock Signal In Synchronous Mode

    &X – Setting the Clock Signal in Synchronous Mode The &X command determines down how the Clock Signal is produced. AT&X0 The modem produces its own send-pulse (factory setting) AT&X1 The modem awaits the send-pulse from the computer AT&X2 The modem produces the send-pulse from the pulse which it re- ceives (pulse loop).
  • Page 25: F - Displaying The Telephone Number Store

    \F – Displaying the Telephone Number Store The command AT\F displays the telephone numbers stored with AT&Z. \G – Modem/Modem Flow Check The \G command determines whether the modem/modem Flow Check is switched on during a “Normal” connection. This Flow Check supports the modem, if data are sent more quickly than they can be handled.
  • Page 26: K - Type Of Break Control

    \K – Type of Break Control The \K command determines how the modem by-passes with a Break signal. Table 3 Break Control Break by Remote Break by Computer in Break by Computer in Modem in “Normal” Data Mode ESC-Command Mode Connection No break to remote Delete buffer send Break...
  • Page 27: S - Displaying The Configuration

    AT\N3 Depending on the remote modem setting, the modem tries to make a Normal, MNP or V.42 connection (Auto reliable). Hardware Flow Check is authorised (factory setting). AT\N4 The modem tries to make a V.42 (Reliable) connection AT\N5 The modem tries to make an MNP (Reliable) connection. Some types of modem will not accept an MNP connection.
  • Page 28: C - Authorise Data Compression

    %C – Authorise Data Compression By using the %C command, you can select data compression for MNP or V.42. For the compression to work, the remote modem must also have the capability for data compression and a Reliable mode (\N2, \N3 or \N4) must be active. AT%C0 Compression not authorised AT%C1...
  • Page 29: R - Remote Configuration

    *R – Remote Configuration Once you have entered the command *R at the local modem, the remote modem can be configured via the telephone line. (Only a limited set of commands is active here). To use this facility, proceed as follows: - Enter ATS80=65 at the modem to be configured (the remote modem) in order to authorise remote configuration.
  • Page 30: L - Displaying Callback Numbers

    ENTER PASSWORD has appeared, a password which is stored in the local modem must be entered at the remote modem. ATS0=1 (so that the modem goes on-line) Provided the local modem recognizes a valid password, it will break off the con- nection and, after 10 seconds, it will dial the telephone number represented by the password in question.
  • Page 31: Dialling With V.25.Bis

    DIALLING WITH V.25.Bis Chapter 3 In order to change from the Hayes to V.25bis command setting and vice-versa, the value of Register 80 must be changed in each case. • ATS80=33 (Change from Hayes to V.25bis Commands) • CNLS80=1 (Change from V.25bis to Hayes Commands) Changes become active only after a modem reset (ATZ or CNLZ).
