Why are Configuration Properties
important?
Configuration Properties of an object (such as the
Directory Object or Modem Controller Object) are
used to alter the operation of a device. These
properties are normally setup parameters that are
accessed just once for purposes of initialization.
However, they may be altered at any subsequent
time.
Configuration Properties may need to be changed
from default values if any of the following is required:

Perpetual Connect mode enabled (in Modem
Controller Object).

Auto Answer mode disabled (in Modem
Controller Object).

Dial string entry (in Directory Object),

Ring Mode enabled and parameters initialized
(in Global Control Object).
Accessing Configuration Properties
Alternative methods of accessing Configuration
Properties are available:

Direct access by either Network Variable
bindings or File Transfer (if a large amount of
data is involved).

Indirect access when a plug-in is used, such as
the NCB/Plug plug-in.
