Chapter 9: Setup Mode: Channel Configuration
XPress DR+ User Guide 76
Normally, there is a modem connected to a local PC and a modem connected to a
remote machine. A user must dial from the local PC to the remote machine, accumulating
phone charges for each connection. Modem Mode allows you to replace modems with
XPress DR+ units, and to use an Ethernet connection instead of a phone call. By not
having to change communications applications, you avoid potentially expensive phone
calls.
To select Modem Mode, set the Connect Mode to C6 (no echo), D6 (echo with full
verbose), D7 (echo with numeric response), CF (modem responses only, numeric
response), or CE (modem responses only, full verbose).
Note: If the unit is in Modem Mode, and the serial port is idle, the unit can still
accept network TCP connections to the serial port if Connect Mode is set to C6
(no echo), D6 (echo with full verbose), D7 (echo with numeric response, CF
(modem responses only, numeric response), or CE (modem responses only, full
verbose).
Without Echo In Modem Mode, echo refers to the echo of all of the characters
entered in command mode; it does not mean to echo data that is
transferred. Quiet Mode (without echo) refers to the modem not
sending an answer to the commands received (or displaying what
was typed).
