In addition, the printer’s serial interface must support DTR (Data Terminal Ready)
hardware handshaking. With this method, when the printer buffer level surpasses some
high water mark, the printer asserts the DTR signal, telling the dialer to halt transmission.
After the printer has emptied most of the data out of its buffer, it will re-assert the DTR
signal, indicating to the dialer that it may resume data transmission. The DTR hardware
handshaking protocol is a common method supported by most serial interfaces.
Refer to Chapter 3 and Chapter 5 for more information on sending a FAX report.
How can I Make an Alarm Sound in the Vicinity of the Dialer? Any digital
output channel can be configured as a local alarm type. A local alarm will be turned on
whenever a new alarm condition exists within the dialer. This output could be connected
to a siren or bell to warn the local area of the alarm condition. Refer to Chapter 3 for
more information on local alarms.
Can an S1000EX Dialer Talk to a Computer? Yes. Software is available to
configure and monitor your dialer’s I/O. Please call factory for additional information.
