/D:Dialing_string
(Normally not used) This command line option substitutes the Dialing_string on
the command line for the dialing string programmed into the MCN Screen File
(specified with the ScreenName option).

If this option is used, a valid ScreenName must also be specified on the command
line.

Every time a screen file is loaded, its dialing phone number is compared with the
dialing phone number of the ScreenName MCN Screen File. If the dialing phone
number match, then the Dialing_string number is dialed instead. If the number
does not match, then the phone number of the new screen file is dialed.

For example, assume there is a screen file called FILE1 which has the following
phone number programmed:

ATDT5551111

If the following command line is executed:

MCNRCD file1 /D:ATDT5551234

MCNRCD will dial the number 555-1234 instead of 555-1111. Now, suppose
FILE2 is a screen file with the dial string ATDT5551111 programmed into it and
FILE3 is a screen file with the dial string ATDT5551212 programmed. If FILE2
is loaded (using the SCREEN LOAD command of MCNRCD), then no new
dialing will occur because both screen files call out the same dialing phone
number. If FILE3 is loaded, then the number 555-1212 will be dialed. If FILE2 is
then loaded again, the number 555-1234 will be dialed because FILE1 and FILE2
contain the same phone number, therefore the /D: override dial string is used
instead.

For a detailed explanation of the modem dialing string format, please refer to
section 10.

/NODIAL (optional)
For the entire MCNRCD session, whenever a screen is loaded, any programmed
dialing string in the MCN Screen File is ignored.
This option allows you to use a MCN Screen File that is configured for a dial up
line in a leased line configuration without having to go into MCNCFG and
reprogram the MCN Screen File.
/LL
This is the Leased Line option. Only use this option if the HIB and PC are
connected through leased line modems. In a leased line configuration, the HIB’s
OPTION A switch 5 must be in the UP position.
