V.25bis AT Commands

The AT commands associated with V.25bis mode are described as follows. Note that one command
enables and disables V.25bis mode and the rest are only operable in the V.25bis mode.

Enable/Disable V.25bis Mode ($V) Command

The function of the $V command is to select the V.25bis mode in asynchronous mode. (Synchronous
mode is set up with switches. For example, the modem could be in AT command mode, (AT$V1),
and if synchronous mode is enabled with AT Command mode enabled, then V.25bis mode is
selected). Prior to executing this command, make sure that your modem is properly set up to perform
the type of operation you will be performing. Refer to the initialization section of this appendix for
information about modem set-up. When in V.25bis mode, most normal AT commands will also
function (except D,N,O and U). V.25bis operates in asynchronous or synchronous modes (depending
on the position of DIP-Switch #12), and does not check for terminal speed (so do not change speeds
while in this mode) or parity. In synchronous mode, speed is not important since the internal clocks
provide synchronization.

To place your modem in V.25bis mode from asynchronous mode, enter the AT$V1 command. To
return to AT command mode, enter the AT$V0 command. AT$V2 allows you to run one V.25bis
command from AT command mode without leaving AT command mode (the V.25bis command
follows $V2 on the command line).

Change Serial Baud Rate (CSP) Command

The CSP command will change the serial baud rate of your modem by entering CSPsssss where
sssss can equal:

0300

=

300 bps

1200

=

1200 bps

2400

=

2400 bps

4800

=

4800 bps

9600

=

9600 bps

19200 =

19200 bps

38400 =

38400 bps

57600 =

57600 bps

115200 =

115200 bps (1932 and 2834 Series only)

Dial Phone Number Provided (CRN) Command

The CRN command permits the dialing of the phone number immediately following it (from the
command line). It is similar to the D command of the AT command set, except that the number is first
checked against the Delayed Number and Forbidden Number list. If permitted, depending on the
country regulations in effect, the number will then be dialed. For example, if you enter CRN7859875
and hit RETURN, your modem will check the two lists. If the number is on the Delayed Numbers list,
you can dial that number again after t minutes have passed. If the number is on the Forbidden list, a
CFIFC message will be displayed.

You can use various commands from the AT command set within the CRN command line to facilitate
the dialing process, such as P, T, or : for pulse dialing, tone dialing and wait for dial tone. V.25bis
supports “smart” dialing.

To dial a phone number, enter CRNdd...dd where dd...dd is the phone number, which can be up to
20 characters long using any character on the telephone pad (0 through 9, *, #, P, T, and :).

Some additional dialing characters may be available, based on country regulations.
