Mode
Data port 1 supports 3 different modes:
Data
Provides a transparent data channel. This channel can be used for many
different purposes such as file transfer, application sharing and more. When
using this mode, it is necessary to have a TANDBERG system at the far end.
Control
The control interface provided by the data port supports a subset of the
Hayes command set as well as a comprehensive set of system specific
commands. This mode maintains communication with the data port’s
command interpreter at all times. All features available from the hand-held
remote control can be accessed through the data port.
Modem
Allows you to control the system externally via a PC as in Control Mode.
Once a call is established, Data port 1 will automatically switch to Data
mode. When the call disconnects, Data port 1 switches back to Control
Mode.
