Operation Operating Procedures Operating Procedures The DataComm V.34 PL allows you to perform a number of operations from the front panel. It displays status information and allows you to configure some aspects of the modem, as well as perform diagnostics.
Operating Procedures Configuration The DataComm V.34 PL leased-line only modem allows you to select a configuration profile. As soon as it is powered up, it performs a display test then displays “gdc” momentarily, then continuously enters the leased line handshake mode.

DTE data rate, etc. Data Mode The DataComm V.34 PL modem is in data mode while it has a telephone line connection to another modem or is in the process of establishing a connection. In Data Mode the modem transmits all the data it receives from the DTE over the phone line.
The synchronous format relies on transmit and receive clocks to maintain character timing. It therefore does not need start and stop bits for each character as does the asynchronous format. The DataComm V.34 PL modem can be configured to use one of the following three clock sources to transmit synchronous data: •...
When that is the case the connection usually will not be dependable and will be filled with errors. To correct such situations, the transmit level of the DataComm V.34 PL for private line operation can be configured in 1 dBm increments between 0 dBm and -15 dBm. This selection can be done from the front panel by entering tL then 0 to 15.
