Operating instructions
Digital Telephone Hybrid 
Set Codec Rx Atten - Performs fine adjustment of codec receive volume. 
Host sends command - 82 
Host sends byte in range 0-54, 126 or 127: 0 represents +6 dB, 18 represents 0 dB, 54 represents -12 dB. 
All values in between 0 and 54 are valid, representing 1/3 dB increments. A value of 126 causes the receive 
volume to decrease 1 dB. A value of 127 causes the receive volume to increase 1 dB. 
Get Codec Rx Atten - Retrieves current fine adjustment of codec receive volume. 
Host sends command - 83 
Host receives byte in range 0-54: 0 represents +6 dB, 18 represents 0 dB, 54 represents -12 dB. All values 
in between are valid, representing 1/3 dB increments. 
Set Codec Privacy Mode - Selects privacy mode for codec interface. 
Host sends command - 84 
Host sends byte: 1: mute tx only, 2: mute rx only, 3: mute both 
Get Codec Privacy Mode - Retrieves privacy mode for codec interface. 
Host sends command - 85 
Host receives data byte: 1: mute tx only, 2: mute rx only, 3: mute both 
Monitoring Commands 
The following commands are intended for convenient fast monitoring of TH3 status from control systems. 
Get Quick Settings - Retrieves information about current TH3 status that may change at any time. 
Host sends command - 100 
Host receives 3 data bytes: 
Byte 1: connect status, privacy status and privacy mode for both interfaces, expressed as a bitmap. 
The low order nibble contains telephone information, and the upper nibble contains codec informa-
tion.  Within each nibble, bit 0 (the LSB) is the connect status, bit 1 is the privacy status, and bits 2 
and 3 contain the privacy mode. 
Byte 2: telephone receive attenuation (see Get Phone Rx Atten, above) 
Byte 3: codec receive attenuation (see Get Codec Rx Atten, above) 
Get Full Settings - Retrieves information about current TH3 status that does not change asynchronously (except 
signal routing information). 
Host sends command - 101 
Host receives 4 data bytes: 
Byte 1: telephone echo suppression (see Get Phone Echo Suppression, above) 
Byte 2: codec echo suppression (see Get Codec Echo Suppression, above) 
Byte 3: upper nibble: dial speed (see Get Dial Speed), lower nibble: auto answer setting (see Get 
Auto Answer). 
Byte 4: bit 4-7 (upper nibble) rx agc setting (see Get Phone Rx AGC, above), bit 2 audible ring 
chime status, bit 1 auto disconnect enable status, bit 0 (LSB) panel switch disable status
