PARAMETER 08:
Handshake Delay
Advancing to Next Parameter:
After programming
PARAMETER 07,
press the
N
key to advance to
PARAMETER 08
– the next parameter in
Category A
.
The CP-220A displays the parameter just programmed ([PARAMETER
NUMBER 07]) with its first digit flashing, indicating its request for the next
parameter number.
You can reach
PARAMETER 08
in one of several ways. Press either:
•
0
then
8
, or
• the
key and
8
, or
• the
key
NOTE: When the

of the next parameter appears
immediately – not its
number
.
SLOT 1 DELAY IS 1 SEC MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS
Background:
After waiting the pre-programmed number of
Ring Signals
(see
PARAMETER 06
on page 2-12) before picking up on an incoming call, the
Line Cards in the CP-220A can be programmed to wait an additional
number of seconds, called the
Handshake Delay,
before transmitting the
handshake signal(s) as programmed into
PARAMETER 07
. Such a delay
may be desirable or even necessary if the nature of the telephone line
connection requires a "settling" period before becoming stable enough to
process the data transmitted by a Digital Communicator. As such, a one-
second delay has been set up as the default for each of the 8 slots in the
CP-220A.
Programming Procedures:
[SLOT 1 DELAY IS 1 SEC] will be displayed after entering
PARAMETER
08.
The number [1] after [SLOT] will be flashing. Each of the 8 slots can be
programmed to delay the onset of the
handshake
signal between 0 and 9
seconds after answering an incoming call.
If it is necessary to change the
Handshake Delay
that
Slot 1
will provide,
take the following steps:
1. Depress
the key once. The [1] indicating the number of seconds will
begin to flash. At this time the delay period may be altered.
2. Press the key representing the number of seconds appropriate for
Slot 1
(i.e., press
2
for two seconds). The chosen number of seconds will be
assigned to
Slot 1.
3. Press
the key so that the [1] after [SLOT] flashes again.
