MDR-2000
V3
User's Reference Manual
Interactive Monitor
Care must
be
taken when changing the modem baud rate since the host terminal must also have its
baud rate changed before communications can continue. The change in baud rates takes effect only
after exiting the Interactive Monitor.
Also note that
if
the change
is
made over a modem that the modem's speed must be altered. Many
modems will allow 300, 1200 and 2400 baud communications but a new call will have to be estab-
lished before the changed baud rate will take effect.
If
a baud rate that is not supported by the
modem is selected the MDR-2000 will NOT be able to communicate.
It
is
not essential that both baud rates be at the same setting, however it
is
preferred. In any case,
the PBX baud rate should never be greater than the modem baud rate.
SET BEEP -
SET
BEEP <Keyword> -
If'
Yes' then the <Bell> character is signaled when an
invalid character
is
entered in response
to
an Interactive Monitor prompt.
If
'No' then invalid
characters are simply ignored. In situations where the Interactive Monitor is used extensively, such
as with the
'Open
Link' command
to
PBX maintenance, the preferred setting
is
'
No'.
This will
help inhibit modem locking problems that can occur when the modem and the Interactive Monitor
echo the <Bell> in response to line noise. The default is 'Yes'.
SET BYTE SIZE -
This option accepts two values which specify the byte size to be used on the
PBX port and the modem port respectively. The byte sizes that may be selected are 5 through
9.
The default setting is
'8'.
After entering the PBX byte size the <Enter> key must be pressed for the modem byte size prompt.
Care must be taken when changing the modem byte size since the host terminal must also have its
byte size changed before communications can continue. Note that changing the byte size can be
limit the ability
of
many communications programs to handle different parity settings. For exam-
ple, with a byte size
of
8 many programs (i.e. EasyCom) will not allow the parity to be set to any-
thing except
'N'
for no parity.
SET
CDR-This
option accepts either a
'Yes'
or
'No'
argument.
If
'Yes'
then the selective CDR
processing routines to analyze and pack calls are used, otherwise they are not used and all data is
treated as image data. The default setting is
'Yes'.
SET
DA
TE -
This option accepts the date in the form
'mmdd'.
The date
is
only used for those
PBX generics that do not provide a date field in the
CDR
record format. In addition, for those
PBXs which output only a daily date the SET DA
TE
command provides an interim date until a date
record is encountered. The date output by a PBX will always supersede this date.
