Dialup Modem

A) Data Format [8N1]
B) Duplex [FULL]
C) Init String [ATM1]
D) Inactivity Timeout [0]
E) Upon Modem Connect Go Directly To [LOGIN]
F) TAP Init String [ATM0]

Note:
If the optional 33.6K dialup modem is not installed in the S530, this menu is displayed, but changing
any of the settings will not do anything.
Data Format
toggles settings for word length, parity, and stop bit settings. The available options are: 8N1, 7E1,
7O1, and 7N1. Default setting is 8N1.
Duplex
controls the echo settings for the modem command processor. Full duplex causes the S530 to echo all
characters sent to the remote device. Half duplex turns off character echo. Default setting is FULL.
Init String
sets the user-defined modem initialization string. This string is sent to the modem before important
factory modem initialization settings, so certain settings in this init string may be overridden. Default setting is
ATM1. (Max length 126 chars) Note: Make sure to enter 'AT' at the beginning of this initialization string.
Inactivity Timeout
sets the number of minutes (0 – 255) to wait before disconnecting an idle modem connection.
A setting of 0 means the connection will never automatically expire. Default setting is 0.
Upon Modem Connect Go Directly To
toggles through a list of actions to control what a user sees directly after
connecting via modem. LOGIN requires the user to login with username and password, and will then take them
to a command prompt. A serial port (I/O1, I/O2, etc.) redirects a modem user directly to that serial port upon
connecting. In this passthrough mode, the command processor of the S530 is transparent. Default setting is
LOGIN.
TAP Init String
is the user-defined modem initialization string used only when the modem is making an
alphanumeric modem callout. Default setting is ATM0. (Max length 126 chars) Note: Make sure to enter 'AT' at
the beginning of this initialization string.
TAP Uses 8N1 Data / Parity / Stop
is an ON/OFF toggle, to force the TAP initialization string data/parity/stop
settings to 8N1. Default setting is OFF.
Setting Key:
modem.hsk
Values are
RTS
(default),
None
and
Xon
. RTS means that on serial pass-through, the modem uses RTS
handshaking; None means no handshaking is used; and Xon means XON/XOFF characters are used.
Caller ID Security
displays a menu that allows you to configure from one to twenty inbound phone numbers to
restrict modem access.
