Paradyne COMSPHERE 3920Plus Technical Reference Manual page 201

Dial command modifiers are parameters entered in the dial command string which specify how, when, and what number
to dial. The following is a list of parameters the 392xPlus modems recognize:
T — Tone (DTMF) dial. Any digit 0–9, *, or # can be dialed as tone.
P — Pulse dial. Only the digits 0–9 can be dialed in Pulse Dial mode.
NOTE: Once a dialing method (tone or pulse) has been specified, it will only remain active until the end of that dial
string. The modem defaults to the value set by the Dialer Type configuration option.
, — Pause. Causes the modem to pause before processing the next character in the dial string. The length of
this pause is determined by the setting of the Pause Time configuration option (refer to the Line Dialer
configuration option group in Chapter 5,
W — Wait for tone dial. The modem waits for a second dial tone before processing the dial string. This can be the
initial dial tone or can be used when dialing through a tandem PBX.
R — Reverse Dial mode. Causes the originating modem to send out an answertone once it no longer detects
ringback. (Ringback is the ring you hear at the originating site when making a call.) The R modifier must be
the last character in the dial string.
@ — Quiet answer. Wait for five seconds of silence after dialing the number. If the silence is not detected, the
modem sends the NO ANSWER result code to the DTE or displays the No Quiet Answer LCD status
message.
! — Hook flash. Causes the modem to go on-hook for 0.5 seconds then return to off-hook.
; — Return to Command mode. Causes the modem to return to Command mode after dialing a number without
disconnecting the call.
Space — Ignored by the dial string, can be included to enhance readability.

+ — Ignored by the dial string, can be included to enhance readability.
