ISDN Communication Basics 29

Manually switching communication modes (non-data)

The manual switching functions will only be necessary if your
communication software does not allow you to change your dial-up
string.

Conventional dialing commands: ATD, ATDT and ATDP, used by
many existing communication software, can be mapped onto one of
the new dialing commands according to the AT&O setting as
follows:

AT Command

Dial string it will map to

AT&O0

ATD, ATDT and ATDP are the same as ATDB.

AT&O2

ATD, ATDT and ATDP are the same as ATDI.

AT&O3

ATD, ATDT and ATDP are the same as ATDA.

The factory default is AT&O2. This means the TA will select ISDN
data mode when you do not specify which communication mode to
use (i.e. ATD or ATDT).

Placing the Call

To initiate a call, choose the proper communication mode and
configure the mode according to the bearer service (or protocol) you
want to use. Here are some simple commands that will be useful
when placing a call:
