Answering a Data Call Manually
An incoming call may be answered manually or automatically; although to answer a data call
manually, the Auto-Answer option must be disabled (or S register S0 must be set to 0). Before
the call is received, the ALX must be set to TALK, as explained in the previous section. The
unit that will be switched to DATA mode first must be set for answer mode (using the
answer/originate option). The other unit must be set for originate mode.
Note:
If you set the
ALX modem to talk mode, the phone will ring, but the ALX will not answer, even if the Auto-
Answer option is enabled.
After the phone rings, and you answer it, you must set the ALX for data mode: With the
MANUAL-DIAL screen still displayed, select DATA. This puts the ALX in data mode.
The first person to go to data mode will hear the telephone disconnect as the modem connects.
The other person must wait until he or she hears an answer tone, and then switch to data mode
(select DATA). When both modems are in data mode, data communication begins. The LCD
displays the status of the connection.
Terminating a Data Call
There are several ways to terminate a data call. One way is through communication software –
by following the software manufacturer’s instructions. Alternate methods are:
•
Select TALK (talk mode) from the MANUAL-DIAL screen.
•
Select HANGUP from the AUTO-DIAL screen.
•
Drop the DTR signal from the DTE (by software control or by turning the DTE off).
V.3x/208 Auto-Detect Mode
This section applies only to models that support Bell 208 operation, and it applies to the answer
modem only.
When V.3x/208 auto-detect mode is enabled, the ALX will automatically select V.34, V.32bis or
Bell 208 operation. (Only the ALX V.34 and V.34M can operate in V.34 mode; all other models
will automatically select V.32bis or Bell 208 mode.)
V.32 Operation
If an answering ALX in V.3x/208 mode detects a V.32 handshake, it will operate with the
following options set as shown:
•
Data format – synchronous
•
V.13 operation – TX and RX
•
Carrier type – constant
•
CTS to EIA – RTS (CTS follows RTS)
