Dial
Command
This field has a default of “D” in a field 3 characters long. This field
denotes the dialing command of the modem. This is a standard
command. This field is not case sensitive. Default is upper case.
No Answer
Time-Out
Most external modems provide a timer that abandons any outbound data
call after a predetermined interval. Some modems disable this timer,
allowing an outbound call to ring indefinitely. Paradyne does not provide
this capability because it is undesirable to have an outbound call attempt
to ring indefinitely. Therefore, the initialization string must contain the
following ASCII string to set the “No-Answer Timer” to the maximum value:
S7=255. The internal modem must have this parameter disabled or set to
at least 255 seconds. This is a non-administrable parameter.
For the modem connection, this parameter is the first initialization string to
be transmitted to the modem. This field is visible on the administration
form in display mode only. The new field is set to S7=255. This hardcoded
constant can be overridden for type approval applications, specifically in
the United Kingdom and other Western European nations, by the use of
the “Misc. Init. Param:” field. (S7=255)
