ZyXEL Communications Corporation edited by Manfred Recla February 5, 1997 Release Note on TA128 Version 2.00b (public betatest) ====================================================== Fixed Bugs: ----------- 1. Set baud rate as 19200/9600/4800/2400 bps, key in T<CR>AT<CR>... sequence there will be no response from TA. 2. AT*HCn's descrption in on-line help is wrong. 3. AT&F doesn't update AA LED status. 4. For USA version, if switch type is AT&T point-to-point, sometimes layer 1 can not activate. 5. For USA version, if switch type is NI1, callback function does not work. 6. The received packet length of D-channel is not correct. 7. Issuing "AT*Ax",x=0,2-7 to set the speed of DTE port 2 other than 115.2 Kbps and saving to the user's profile by issuing "AT&W0Z0". After power off and on the TA, DTE port 2 does not accept any AT command until issuing command to DTE port 1 firstly. 8. CAPI 2.0 driver can not be used with CANDI. 9. Issuing "ATC$" to view EPA will get some garbage. 10. For DTE port2, TA can not send SETUP message with Low Layer Compatibility while making an outgoing call. 11. When using the phone features and trying to send BUSY to the caller Flash/5, the TA128 sends DISCONNECT with 'Call reject' instead of 'User busy'. 12. While intercom or 3 way conference, only Phone 1 can answer an incoming call. Phone 2 should be able to answer the call. New Implementation: ------------------- 1. Caller ID display for POTS ports. When telephone call is coming, if physical DTE port is not occupied by any logical DTE channels, Caller ID and Calling ID will be displayed when s84.4=0. 2. AT*GC1: 2 changes. (1). Compare Calling Party Number (CGPN) with the stored numbers from the right digit to the left digit. So 8005552000 will match 5552000. (2). Based on the shorter one, so the CGPN can be longer or shorter than the stored numbers. 3. Leased line function. Using following command to configure: 3.1. ATDCn n=1,2,3 excites leased line connection on originate mode. DC1 - excites leased line connection using B1 channel on originate mode DC2 - excites leased line connection using B2 channel on originate mode DC3 - excites leased line connection using both B1 and B2 channel on originate mode 3.2. ATABn n=1,2,3 excites leased line connection on answer mode. AB1 - excites leased line connection using B1 channel on answer mode AB2 - excites leased line connection using B2 channel on answer mode AB3 - excites leased line connection using both B1 and B2 channel on answer mode 3.3. AT&In n=0,1,2,3 normal/leased line options &I0 - normal dial-up phone line. (default) &I1 - leased line function in B1 channel only, dial-up function in B2 channel &I2 - leased line function in B2 channel only, dial-up function in B1 channel &I3 - leased line function in both B1 and B2 channel. 4. Feature phone function: flash/6 - designate local phone to answer incoming call which ringing another phone. 5. Add "AT&W" to save DTE#2 B-channel protocol in NVRAM: If you first time upload firmware that includes "AT&W" function for DTE#2, please set the B channel protocol and set it into NVRAM (AT&W). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- January 23, 1997 Release Note on Omni TA128 Version 2.00a (public betatest !) ============================================================= 1.The firmware's file names for various switch type are as follows: FILENAME SWITCH TYPE 1.1 "OI_E200A" ------ DSS1 1.2 "OI_A200A" ------ USA 1.3 "OI_G200A" ------ 1TR6 (GERMANY only) 2.Fixed the Bugs: ================= 2.1 For AOC function, a second call delete the charging information from channel B1, but not real. After the next charging unit come for B1 channel, the lost units shows correctly again and the A/B adapter send this accumulated units as 16 kHz metering pulse to the connected phone. By the way, the phone display wrong charging information. 2.2 It's necessary to analysis the High-Layer Compatibility information element, especially G4 fax. An incoming call with G4 fax have to be routed to correspondable a/b adapter. 2.3 Making an outgoing data call to a BUSY TA may get "NO CARRIER" instead of "BUSY". 2.4 While calling an unassigned number using analog port, the inband information will come from switches. But the TA128 sends a busy tone instead of connect this inband information. 2.5 For Japanese version, while making an outgoing phone call with subaddress using analog port, then there are two errors in SETUP message: 1) the length of called party number is not correct. 2) missing the byte of AFI ( Authority and Format Identifier ) for called party subaddress with the type of NSAP X.213/ISO 8348 AD2. 2.6 While making a user-to-user information ( using ATT command ), the TA send wrong message to switch. 2.7 For s50 function, while the value of s50 is more then 128, making a data call will cause TA reset. 2.8 The answer side sets "ATE0Q1" "AT*G4" or "AT*G5". while calling back a incoming call ,the message "CallBack ATDIS0" will be displayed. 2.9 Fixed the bug in the comformance test of Singapore. 2.10 The modem will crash when the server reguest PAP but Win95 require encrypted password. 2.11 For PPP/MP, the second call will wait 2 seconds to dial out after the first passes authentication. 2.12 Issuing "ATCG", the activated of layer 1 fails. 2.13 For s124 setting, there are some problems to send LCP-echo. 2.14 The timer for S124 value is incorrect to send LCP-echo. 3.Newly implemented features ============================ 3.1 Sync Data ------------- 3.1.1. AT&M1: asynchronous (=async) command, synchronous (=sync) mode. At call site, issue "AT&M1" and "ATB11" ( V.110, sync 64K ), then LLC with sync mode will be included in the SETUP message. AT answer site, only issue "AT&M1", the Elite will check LLC of incoming SETUP message and connect with sync data. 3.1.2. AT&M3: synchronous mode. V25bis command set for this synchronous mode is available. AT*I1 have to be issued for enabling V25bis command set. 3.2 CAPI 2.0 ------------ 3.2.1 A public-beta version of the CAPI 2.0 driver was released simultaneously with the F/W version 2.00a. Supported Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols are: X.75/transparent, X.75/T.70 (for T-Online), X.75/ISO8208 (for European File Transfer) HDLC/transparent 3.2.2 Two applications on the same PC can work concurrently, each using one of the two B-channels. 3.3 Miscellaneous ----------------- 3.3.1 S50, inactivity timer. The Elite counts when there is no data flow in or out of the RS-232 serial port. A connection is disengaged when the counter reaches the preset value. Set '0' to disable this function. This function is available in PPP protocol. ============================================================================= December 13, 1996 Release Note on Omni TA128 Version 2.00 ======================================== "DSS1" firmware CRC checksum: 1032 ======================================== Windows95 ID for DSS1: UNIMODEM9E96B92C Windows95 ID for JAPAN: UNIMODEMCEDD2728 Windows95 ID for TAIWAN:UNIMODEM6AAF4CFC Windows95 ID for KOREA: UNIMODEMAA7AD78F ======================================== 1.The firmware's file names for various switch type are as follows: FILENAME SWITCH TYPE 1.1 "TA128E.200" ------ DSS1 1.2 "TA128A.200" ------ USA 1.3 "TA128G.200" ------ 1TR6 (GERMANY only) 2.Fixed the Bugs: ================= 2.1 PPP/MP BOD delay timer does not work. 2.2 The DTE port 2 ATDL command cause the response to be showed on DTE port 1. 2.3 POTS ports still answers to the unmatched MSN number. 2.4 The analog call can not send LLC (Low Layer Capability) while set S80.4=1 or S80.7=1. 2.5 Security function on V.110 doesn't work. 2.6 The stored call back number ( by AT*HCn ) can not be erased by doing hardware reset. 2.7 For security functions there are two kinds of messages that can be used at the TA prompt. For example, "Password" and "PassWord", "CORRECT" and "Correct". Now "PassWord" and "Correct" are the only correct messages . 2.8 After V.110 connection, the item "Receive Byte" of "ATI3" displays incorrect value. 2.9 For U model of USA version, issuing AT&T8 or AT&T10 causes the TA to loose the SPIDs. 2.10 Issuing ATZI1 will get "ERROR", it should be "OK". 2.11 While receiving a Facility message with AOC_S, the TA will send a STATUS. 3.Newly implemented features ============================ 3.1 CAPI.DLL v1.1 Profile A ----------------------------- 3.1.1 A public betatest version 0.96 of the CAPI 1.1 profile A driver for Windows (CAPI.DLL, 16-bit) was released simultaneously with the f/w version 2.00 The supported B-channel layer 2 and layer 3 protocols are: HDLC / transparent (used for some network connections with WISPA, etc) X.75 / transparent (used for most standard connections, eg. to BBS) X.75 / T.70NL (used for the German T-Online Service) X.75 / ISO-8208 (used for "EFT" = Euro File Transfer) Bit Transparent (for some G3 Fax applications). Two applications on the same PC can work concurrently, each using one of the two B-channels. [Note] We established a public mailing list on the Internet for testing this CAPI.DLL. If you are interested, please subscribe to this mailing list: send an eMail to "majordomo@zyxel.co.at" and in the message body write following two lines: -------------------------------------------- subscribe capi-testers your.name@site.domain end -------------------------------------------- where "your.name@site.domain" is your full Internet eMail address. If you had subscribed successfully you will receive a confirmation of your subscription in an eMail within minutes. The "Welcome to the capi-testers mailing list" eMail contains more background information .... 3.1.2 EAZ to MSN mapping function for CAPI mode. Users can use AT&Zn=xxx/sss/, n=0-9 (denotes the EAZ), xxx = phonenumber, sss = subaddresss to do this mapping. For outgoing calls, the Elite receives "Source EAZ" (0-9) from the application and uses the appriopriate phone number as Calling_Party_Number/Subaddress. For incoming calls, the Elite checks Called_Party_Number/Subaddress and uses the matched phone number register's pointer (0-9) as "RequestedEAZ" to the applications. 3.2 Charging Information ------------------------ 3.2.1 AOC (Advice Of Charging) function: now you can use "ATCH?" to view the charge information of the last call if the network had sent the message. Please check with your ISDN Central Switching Office if any of the following EuroISDN supplementary services - according to the ETSI specifications - could be actived (because they are not supported in all European countries !) AOC-S/currency = Advice of Charging on call Setup time AOC-D/currency AOC-D/units = Advice of Charging During a connection AOC-E/currency AOC-E/units = Advice of Charging at the End of a call 3.2.2 Metering Pulse function ("ATS89.6=1") in case of the "AOC-D/units" ISDN supplementary service: for Germany (16 kHz), Switzerland (12 kHz) and Austria (12 kHz). Therefor it is necessary to set the correct ISDN country code ! Please check the current ISDN country code with the command "AT#H" [Note] Users can use the following command to change the country code: ATS38=4 for enable changing country code function. AT#Gxxx for enter country code xxx. ISDN country code list: Sweden 250 HongKong 242 Taiwan 238 Germany 237 Italy 236 Japan 234 Austria 233 Switzerland 225 ATTENTION: please don't set any other ISDN country code than specified otherwise your ZyXEL ISDN product won't work correctly and then the behaviour for D-channel singalling would cause malfunction (especially if some country specific features will not be supported or implemented in the ISDN Central Switch firmware for the ISDN basic rate access in your country) ! 3.3 New protocols for DTE port #2 --------------------------------- 3.3.1 implementation of X.75 and V.120. 3.3.2 multiauto mode auto-detect/connect PPP, X.75, V.120 protocols. 3.3.3 DTE port 2 will answer to matched "called party number" with MSN setting (refers to AT&ZI5 command). 3.3.4 One more S register bit is to configure DTE port 2 to answer the incoming data call when DTE port 1 is busy (in connected state), even if the MSN (at&ZI5) is not matched. S87.7 = 0 : DTE port 2 will only answers the incoming data call with matched MSN number (default). S87.7 = 1 : DTE port 2 answers incoming call when port 1 busy. (useful for server applications) 3.4 New POTS port features -------------------------- 3.4.1 Intercom / Transfer / MultiAnswer / Call Waiting / - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 3-Way Switch mode / 3-Way Mixing mode , and all the features will be handled by the TA128 per se, users don't need to subscribe those features from the phone company (therefore no extra charge for them). [Note]: Due to hardware limitation, only the newer TA128 is able to support all the POTS port features. Please check your hardware by issuing "AT&V6" to view the "Full-featured" status. +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | Features | Full-featured=1(Yes) | Full-featured=0(No) | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.2 | Yes | Yes | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.3 | Yes | No | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.4 | Yes | No | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.5 | Yes |Yes,but no 3-way conf| +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.6 | Yes |Yes,but no 3-way conf| | | |and no Intercom | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.7 | Yes |Yes,but no 3-way conf| | | | mixing mode | +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ | 3.4.8 | Yes |Yes,but some are void| +----------+----------------------+---------------------+ The old hardware can be upgraded by reworking at customer's expense.
