Table 34: TAP Outdial Per-destination Parameters (continued)
Meaning cc pp qq ...
Dialing Control 05 02 This parameter is used to control the dialing behavior for a
given destination. Currently the parameter is used to select
the baud rate to call at and the time to wait for carrier.
Byte 1 = destination number. The ID number of the
destination to set the Dialing and retry control
values for. This must be between zero and fifteen
decimal, which is 00 to 0F hex.
Byte 2 = baud rate. Baud rate used when calling this
destination. The baud rate is coded as follows:
00 300 Baud
01 1200 Baud
02 9600 Baud
03 150 Baud - historical
04 600 Baud
05 2400 Baud
06 4800 Baud
These baud rate selection codes are the same as
used for TNPP and the Multiport TAP input
cards. Note that the modem must be capable of
supporting the selected baud rate. The default is
300 baud.
Byte 3 = Data bits and parity setting Data and parity bits
to use with this destination. These settings are
coded as:
00 7 Data bits, Even parity.
01 7 Data bits, Odd parity.
02 8 Data bits, No parity.
The default is 7 Data bits, Even parity. This is
also the value given in the TAP specification.
Byte 4 = seconds to wait for modem carrier. The number
of seconds to wait for the modem's “connected”
report, after finishing dialing. Any other possible
response, such as “busy” or “no carrier”, are
considered part of the “connected” reporting.
Note that the modem itself may, and usually
does, have its own wait for connect time. Thus
the modem may needed to be programmed for
the desired wait period in an initialization string,
as well as setting this parameter. The value
ranges from 0 to 255 seconds, with values below
10 generally being unwise choices. The default is
a 30-second wait for carrier.
