10. AT Commands Dial Modifiers Dial modifiers are characters than can be included in a phone number to make the modem perform special tasks while dialling For example not all modem users will be using a dedicated telephone line Some users will have their modems connected to PABXs To allow users of PABXs to operate their modems successfully dial modifiers are supported on the modem Most PABXs require you to dial 0 or 9 in order to obtain an outside line and wait for a dial tone before dialling the actual phone number Using dial modifiers you can successfully dial the phone number 12345 through a PABX using the command ATDO 12345 The comma dial modifier causes the modem to pause for a short time after dialling 0 This allows most PABXs sufficient time to obtain a line before dialling The factory default delay for the modifier is two seconds You may change the length of this delay if necessary Its length is determined by the value in S Register 8 Another method of making the modem wait for a dial tone is to include the W dial modifier The W modifier causes the modem to examine the phone line to ensure a dial tone has been applied before dialling starts ATDOW 12345 If the modem cannot detect a dial tone within the time specified by S Register 7 the modem will return to local command state and send a NO DIALTONE message to the computer if either the X2 X4 or X5 commands have been issued Due to differences with som

23. Another method of making the modem wait for a dial tone is to include the colon dial modifier The modifier causes the modem to examine the phone line to ensure a dial tone has been applied before dialling starts For example e Type CRN 0 12345 If the modem cannot detect a dial tone within the time specified by S Register 7 the modem will return to local command state and send a CFI AB indicator to the computer se Due to differences with some older telephone exchanges dial tone detection may not be possible with your modem Your modem will only recognise dial tones between 200 Hz and 600 Hz More information about dial modifiers can be found in the Command Descriptions section of this guide Hanging Up To hang up your modem when operating in V 25bis mode lower DTR Your modem will hang up whenever DTR goes low Stored Number Dialling Your modem has the ability to store phone numbers for redialling at a later time For example to store a phone number use the PRN command e Type PRN 1 012345 lt E gt The phone number 012345 will be stored as phone number one To dial a phone number that has been stored in your modem e Type CRS 1 lt E gt The modem will dial stored phone number one Stored phone numbers are shared by V 25bis mode and AT Command mode Thus if you store a phone number while AT Command mode is active you may dial that store phone number in V 25bis mode or vice versa Page 66 AT Comman
