Setting the Modem Profile Option 25
This modem profile option describes the modem characteristics, to be used by the
modem controller. Here is an example:
constant kSupportsEC := true;
constant kSupportsLCS := nil;
constant kDirectConnectOnly:= nil;
constant kConnectSpeeds := '[300, 1200, 2400, 4800,
7200, 9600, 12000, 14400];
constant kConfigSpeed := 38400;
constant kCommandTimeout := 2000;
constant kMaxCharsPerLine := 40;
constant kInterCmdDelay := 25;
constant kModemIDString := "unknown";
constant kConfigStrNoEC :=
"ATE0&A0&B1&C1&H1&M0S12=12\n";
constant kConfigStrECOnly :=
"ATE0&A0&B1&C1&H1&M5S12=12\n";
constant kConfigStrECAndFallbac :=
"ATE0&A0&B1&C1&H1&M4S12=12\n";
constant kConfigStrDirectConnec :=
"ATE0&A0&B0&C1&H0&M0S12=12\n";
For detailed descriptions of these constants, see “Modem Setup Profile Constants”
(page 22-4) in Newton Programmer’s Reference. For more information about the
modem preferences option, see “Modem Profile Option” (page 21-38) in Newton
Programmer’s Reference.
When the modem tool establishes communication with a modem through an
endpoint, the tool normally sends a configuration string to the modem (as long as
kUseConfigString is true ). Several configuration strings are defined in a
typical modem profile; the one that is sent depends on the type of connection
requested and other parameters set in the modem profile. Table 25-1 summarizes
when each kind of configuration string is used:
