DL8000 Preset Instruction Manual
3-42 Modules Revised February-2016
Note: When installing a dial-up modem module, you must remove
power from the DL8000.
The dial-up modem provides communications with speeds up to 14.4K
bps with V.42 bis and V.42, MNP2-4 and MNP10 error correction.
The dial-up modem module is FCC Part 68 approved for use with
PSTNs. The FCC label on the module provides the FCC registration
number and the ringer equivalent. The dial-up modem module supports
data compression, error correction, and nonvolatile RAM for permanent
storage of the modem configuration.
The dial-up modem module interfaces to two-wire, full-duplex
telephone lines using asynchronous operation. The module interfaces to
a PSTN through an RJ-11 jack. The dial-up modem can be controlled
using industry-standard AT command software. A 40-character
command line is provided for the AT command set, which is compatible
with EIA document TR302.2/88-08006.
The dial-up modem automatically hangs up after a configured period of
communications inactivity. The dial-up modem provides automated
dial-up alarm reporting capabilities.

Notes:
If you are installing a modem module, it is recommended that you
install a surge protector between the RJ-11 jack and the outside line.
The dial-up modem is not hot-swappable or hot-pluggable. When
installing a dial-up modem module, you must remove power from
the DL8000.
