Call/Answer, Modem Answer Only, ComDesign Mux, and Autoconfig
are not available for the second and third nodes.

Access Manager uses Hayes

protocol for modems. If the phone number

is not preceded by an alpha character, Access Manager assumes that the
phone line in use is a dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF) line and prefixes
the phone number with the characters ATDT. However, if the phone line
requires dial pulsing, you must enter the prefix ATDP to the number
yourself. Refer to the modem manual for more information on how to use
these commands. This number should include an access prefix followed
by a comma if the lines are connected to a PBX. The comma causes the
modem to pause for a set time period to allow for a second dial tone after
dialing the access prefix.

Since

Access Arrangement

controls only the host computer (i.e.,

PC) end of the Comline, it is necessary to assure that equipment at both
ends of the connection be set for the correct access arrangement. See the
Verilink SIM, NC/E, 551VST List 2 , 551VST ML List 1, 551VST ML List
2,
and Access System 2000 Manuals.
