NUM OF RETRIES Specifies the number of dialing retries:
NUM OF RETRIES applies to both the primary and the
alternate numbers as follows:
• If the call is not established after dialing the primary
number the specified number of times, the CM-2
attempts to establish the call by dialing the alternate
number (provided the use of an alternate number is
enabled by means of the ALT NUM MODE parameter
below).
• If the call cannot be established with the specified
number of redialing attempts on either of the two
numbers, the CM-2 stops the call attempt. When a
new alarm report must be sent, the call attempts are
started again.
The user is notified about a failed call attempt by a
message recorded in the alarm buffer. Separate messages
are provided for each number called.
0 – No redial is attempted if
the call is not established on
the first attempt
1 through 8 – If the call is not
established on the first
attempt, the CM-2 redials the
specified number of times.
WAIT FOR CONNECT Specifies time that the CM-2 waits for an answer after each
dialing attempt. If the called station does not answer
within the specified time, the CM-2 disconnects. If
additional call attempts are allowed, the CM-2 redials 30
seconds after disconnecting.
