The message Command Complete appears on the LCD to indicate that the tributary modem will
be added to the control modem’s poll list.

Acquire
The Acquire function does not appear in Remote mode.
Acquire allows you to acquire an active poll list consisting of all modems that are one tier
downstream. A modem adds to its poll list all downstream modems that respond to a poll.

Press the key until Acquire appears. Select Acquire.
NOTE
If an error message (OtherTestActive or Unable To Acquir)
appears on the second line of the LCD, move up one level in the
menu tree to clear the message and return to the PList Acquire
branch. The OtherTestActive message indicates that a test is
running which blocks the Acquire function. The Unable To Acquir
message indicates that the diagnostic network is in a busy state.

The address field (xxx) is incremented sequentially from 001 to 256 as polls are transmitted from
the modem to the downstream modem(s). To be added to the modem’s poll list, the device must
respond to a poll after receiving its address. The Acquire function can be canceled by selecting
Abort.
The number field (yyy) indicates the total number of devices that responded to the modem’s polls
thus far. These devices have been acquired for the poll list.
Select Abort or allow the function to complete.
