This screen is sometimes helpful when
diagnosing dialing problems. The information
on this screen is as follows:

Field Description
Status When the modem is connected the status will show UP.
DSR When the modem is connected and powered on the DSR
box should be red to indicate that the modem is ready
DCD Indicates that the modem is currently receiving carrier –
generally this means that it has made a connection to
another modem.
Last Response Shows the last message sent by the modem to the A032
during a dial attempt. This can be useful in several ways.
If a connection is successful this usually shows the
connect message received from the modem. This often
has useful information about the type and speed of

error message returned by the modem.
