7.8.2 Modem Setup - Additional Features (Service Terminal Interface only)
The Service Terminal Interface offers four additional options for the modem that are not available
through the LCD interface:
• Enter AC8 phone number
• Enable modem diagnostic messages
• Change modem dial prefix
• Change modem hang up delay after a call
To access these options:
• Connect to the AC8 either from a remote computer or through the RS232 port (see
A.2 - Connecting to the Service Terminal Interface).
• At the Main Menu, enter 0 (zero—Setup System - Login Required).
• At the Login Menu, enter your password, then press the Enter key.
• At the Setup Menu, enter 6 (Setup Modem&Pagers).
• At the Setup Modem & Pagers menu, shown below, enter 5 to begin configuration.
• At the Change Modem Initialization String prompt, you may press Enter to bypass this option (or
see 7.8.1 - Modem Setup - Initialization String for instructions on entering the string).
Enter AC8 Phone Number
This entry allows you to store the phone number that must be dialed to access the AC8 for future ref-
erence. This has no effect on the AC8’s modem settings or functionality—it simply places the phone
number in an accessible location.
• At the AC8 Phone Number prompt, enter the phone number for the AC8. The current setting
appears in brackets []—nothing has been entered in the following example.
• Press Enter to proceed, or Escape to cancel the entry. If you make a change, a confirmation mes-
sage appears: “Command Successful.”
