Appendix C
MN - Dial out Phone Number
Purpose: Displays the currently programmed phone number.
Format: MN nnnnnn n
Range: The phone number can be up to 15 digits in length.
Default: MN0000000
Description: Hyphens and spaces can be used if desired, but are not neces-
sary and should be eliminated if the number has many digits.
The phone number can be stored in non-volatile memory like
other ADFM parameters by issuing the ‘CK’ command.
Setting the phone number to an empty string (i.e. ‘MN’ with
no argument can disable the dial-out function. This will cause
the dial-out logic to be bypassed.
MO - Check to see if the Modem is OK
Purpose: Tests the modem.
Format: MO
Description: Entering ‘MO’ and the ADFM command prompt will cause
the ADFM to send the attention (AT) command to the Mo-
dem. If the Modem is on and in command mode and function-
ing well, it will respond with an ‘OK’ message to the ADFM.
The ADFM will then display a message indicating that the
Modem is okay. If the Modem is on-line when this command
is given (i.e. it is connected to the host), the ADFM will report
that the Modem is ON-LINE. Otherwise the ADFM will re-
port that the Modem is not okay, and may indicate a failure
(e.g. Modem is turned off, data cable is disconnected, etc.).
MP - Modem Power
Purpose: Turns modem power on or off.
Format: MP n
Range: n = 0,1 (0 = off, 1 = on)
Default: MP1
Description: The MP command can be used to turn on (MP 1) or off (MP
0) the power to the Modem, and can only be used when com-
municating to the ADFM via one of the local interfaces (i.e.
RS-232 or RS-422). This command can be useful for conserv-
ing battery power by turning off the Modem when communi-
cating to the ADFM over one of the local interfaces (when
performing testing, for example). This command is disabled if
