6.1.3 Command strings
All command strings may contain a pipe (|) character, which
translates into a CR and a tilde (~) character which
translates into a one second pause.
Escape code Used to place the modem in command (as
opposed to data/on-line) mode. This is only
used if you have disabled "Lower DTR to
terminate call" or if you are using the
"Reset modem to connect speed" option.
Return on-line Used to place the modem in data/on-line (as
opposed to command) modem. This is only used
if you are using the "Reset modem to connect
speed" option.
Onhook Used to place the modem on hook (as opposed
to off hook) if you have disabled "Lower DTR
when busy" or "Lower DTR to terminate call".
Offhook Used to place the modem off hook (as opposed
to on hook) if you have disabled "Lower DTR
when busy".
Dial Used when the Mailer places an outgoing call.
The Mailer will send the dial (this) string,
the Prefix, the telephone number, followed by
the Suffix.
Ie. <Dial><Prefix><Number><Suffix>
Prefix Sent before every number when the Mailer
places an outgoing call (see above).
Suffix Sent after every number when the Mailer
places an outgoing call (see above). This
should be set to the pipe (|) character to
indicate a CR in most cases.
Delay The delay (in 1/10 second) between every
string the Mailer sends to the modem. If you
have an extremely fast modem (not baud rate),
such as the USR HST, you can set this as low
as one or two, but most modems require that
this is set between four and eight.
Init-1..Init-3 Modem initialization strings. They are sent
every time the Mailer initializes the modem
in order (Init-1, Init-2, Init-3). Unused
strings should not be set to anything (leave
field blank).
Down Sent to the modem when the Mailer terminates.
This occurs when mail has been received or
when you press <Alt-Q> (Quit).
Reset Sent to the modem to force it to respond with
an OK message. This should be set to "AT|" in
most cases.
