1 To add your own modem, you need the owner’s manual from the modem to
complete the prompts in this display.
Optionally, to add your own modem, copy the $generic hayes modem entry,
and change the prompt information to match the information required for
your modem.
2 The default modem answer command instructs the modem to answer an
incoming call after one ring and then wait a maximum of 30 seconds for a
connection. If you need more time to establish connections, you must
change this command.
Step 3 - Determine Configuration Profile Type
There are two kinds of connection profiles, *ANS and *DIAL profiles. Use *ANS
profiles for dial-in support. These profiles are called *ANS profiles because AS/400
uses them to answer incoming calls from remote systems.
Use *DIAL profiles for dial-out support. These profiles are called *DIAL profiles
because AS/400 uses them to dial out to remote systems.
For each modem attached to AS/400, you need at least one configuration profile.
For each line attached to the modem, you need an asynchronous line description.
If you are using the same modem to dial in and to dial out, you need two profiles
for that modem. You need a *ANS profile for dial-in support, and a *DIAL profile for
the dial-out support. If the modem has only one line attached, you need only one
line description.
Only one caller at a time can use a given asynchronous line and its associated line
description.
To add a dial-in profile, go to “Step 4 - Add a Dial-In (*ANS) Configuration Profile”
on page 133.
