CDCHKON
Function
Turn on carrier detect checking.
Syntax
CDCHKON No arguments are required
Remarks
PCBoard has built in automatic carrier detecting. What this means is
that if someone should hangup unexpectedly, PCBoard will detect it, log
it to the callers log, and recycle back to the call waiting screen. Some
applications require the ability to turn this off; for example, a
callback verification PPE needs to hangup on the caller and then do
more processing. Normally, PCBoard would just recycle at that point.
So, just before you start a section of code that should continue
regardless of the existence of a caller online, you should issue a
CDCHKOFF statement. It will turn off the automatic carrier checking.
When you've finished the block where carrier checking has been
disabled, issue the CDCHKON statement to turn it back on.
