Method 2:  Switching the Modem’s DTE Connector Function

 

As an alternative to using an additional cable to the diagnostic port (as described above), the 
Hayes mode command 

–N1 (AT –N1) 

can be issued

 

to change the function of the modem’s DTE 

connector.  This command switches to the modem’s DB-25 connector from its normal function 
as DTE connector to instead function as the diagnostic port.  (It also disables the physical 
diagnostic port, until the normal DTE connector function is restored.) 
 
After issuing the 

–N1 

command, you can send control commands to the ALX, but you will not 

be able to transfer data.  To return the DTE connector to its normal function, issue the control 
command 

JMP

 
If you have used the 

–P 

command (explained below) to change the diagnostic port data rate, the 

rate will revert to 9600 bps when you issue the 

JMP 

command.  However, if you add an 

to the 

JMP 

command (

JMPX

), the diagnostic port data rate selected via the 

–P 

command will remain 

effective until the modem is powered down or reset. 
 
 

Method 3:  Modem in a Rack Enclosure

 

For information on connecting the DTE to the rack controller, see the rack controller instruction 
manual. 
 

Control Link Data Rate

 

You can specify the diagnostic port data rate by using the Hayes mode 

–P 

command (

AT –P

), as 

follows: 
 
 

-P0 

9600 bps (default) 

 

-P3 

57.6 Kbps 

 -P1 

19.2 

Kbps 

  -P4 

115.2 

Kbps 

 -P2 

38.4 

Kbps 

 

 
The 

–P 

command must be issued prior to issuing the 

–N1 

(switch DTE connector) or 

CONNECT (CON) 

command (described below), and it should be issued separately (not in the 

same command line with 

–N1 

or 

CONNECT/CON

). 

 

Note:  

The diagnostic port does not support flow control.  Therefore, if the port on the DTE 

cannot support the selected data rate without flow control, you may experience data loss.  If this 
occurs, try a lower data rate. 
 

Control Commands 

 

 
The diagnostic software built into the ALX supports the control commands listed in Table 3-2.  
These commands can only be used when the ALX is configured for diagnostic port control.
