Solution You are using Windows NT3.XX
or 4.XX
Printers are managed diffe-
rently under Windows NT com-
pared with Windows 3.1 , 95 or
98.
The modem is treated as a
printer through the OLIPRINT
driver. Olitec applications are
set up to operate under
Windows 3.1 , 95 or 98.
Under NT faxes can be sent
using Olifax, but not received,
as the OLIPRINT driver cannot
be installed in Windows NT.
For the moment there is no
solution apart from using ano-
ther application to manage the
modem.

Problem There is a message error when

using the remote access under
Windows 95.

■ AT commands
When the modem is switched on it obeys AT commands (command mode).
Every command line must start with the letters AT as a signal to the modem.
When the modem receives this command it detects the rate, format and parity of its link with the
data terminal equipment (DTE).
Command lines finish with <CR> (carriage return).
E.g. ATL3CR
This command increases the volume of the loudspeaker.
The modem sends a message to indicate the command has been successfully completed (see
chapter «Result codes»).
E.g.: OK, ERROR
Several commands can be included in one AT sequence. They will be executed one after another.
E.g.: ATL3D3611CR
The D3611 command asks videotex to dial 3611.
Spaces can be inserted between characters, they will be ignored.
E.g.: AT L3 D3611CR
Exception: the command A/ which re-executes the previous command does not start by AT and
does not have CR at the end.

A set of S registers allows the modem to be configured (see chapter «Registers»). ATSn? allows
consultation of the n register. The reversed decimal value is between 000 and 255 (3 character
format). ATSn=v describes the v decimal value (between 0 and 255) in the n register.
E.g.: 1 ATS3?CR
Consulting S3 register. This register contains the character used as the end code
in a command line. Its default value is 13 (CR).
E.g.: 2 ATS0=2CR
Enter the value 2 in S0 register. This register specifies the ring count before the
modem answers. In this example the modem answers after 2 rings (S0=0 stops
the modem answering).

A Makes a connection in manual answer mode (identical to automatic answer after

several rings).
■ N.B.1: during the phase when the modem quits command mode to make a connection
(handshake) the communication will be interrupted if the terminal sends a character
or the DTR signal is disabled.

■ N.B.2: the &A command controls this interruption during handshake.

■ N.B.3: the &D command and S25 register setup the DTR management mode.

B Enables function mode

B, B0 Automatic mode (default configuration).

B2 CCITT V23 mode (line rate: 75/1200 send or 1200/75 receive).

B6 CCITT V22 mode (line rate: 1200/1200 bps).
B7 CCITT V21 mode (line rate: 300/300 bps).
B8 CCITT V22bis mode (line rate: 2400/2400 bits/ps).
B9 CCITT V32 mode (line rate: 9600/9600 bps).
B10 CCITT V32bis mode (line rate: 14400/14400 bps).
B16 BELL 212A mode (line rate: 1200/1200 bps).
B17 BELL 103 mode (line rate: 300/300 bps).
B18 Mode CCITT V32 mode (line rate: 4800/4800 to 9600/9600 bps).
B19 Mode CCITT V32bis mode (line rate: 4800/48000 to 14400/14400 bps).
B20 Mode CCITT V34 mode (line rate: 9600/9600 to 33600/33600 bps).
B22 Mode K56 flex mode
B23 Auto Mode V90 (from 300 to 56000 bps).
B24 Mode V90 forced (from 42667 to 56000 bps).

■ Note: the B22 command applies to the 56000 range.

D Starts a connection procedure.

E.g. : ATDCR (the modem takes the line and waits for the carrier tone of the
remote modem modem in order to connect).
Start an automatic call procedure with the command followed by a telephone
number.
Ex : ATD12345678CR (the modem takes the line, dials the number 12345678
and waits for the carrier in order to connect).
The following characters may be added to the telephone number dialled:
L Redial last telephone number
P Pulse dialling, e.g. ATDP12345678CR
S=n Dial a sequence stored in the non-volatile memory n(0 to 19 depending
on the model) by the &Zn command.
T Tone dialling, e.g. ATDT12345678CR
W Wait for dial tone before dialling the rest of the number. W is used to insert
a pause to wait for a dialling tone (for example international).
E.g.: ATD16W12345678CR
, S8 pause before dialling (only to be used with a PABX / switchboard).
E.g.: ATD0, 12345678
; Return to command mode after dialling. E.g.: ATD12345678;CR

■ Note 1: modem will hang up if an Ascii character is sent or the DTR signal is disabled
during dialling. The &A command controls the communication interruption when a cha-
racter is received from the terminal (during handshake). The &D command and S25
register set the DTR management mode.
■ Note 2: spaces may be inserted in the number being dialled, they will be ignored.
■ Note 3: *D allows consultation of delayed numbers and *B displays prohibited numbers.
■ Note 4: ATD<num> may send the message DELAYED 00:mm:ss (call late by mm minutes
and ss seconds). In the event of an incomplete call <num> may be BUSY, NO ANSWER or
NO CARRIER (if there is no connection after S7 seconds). ATD <NUM> may also send the
message BLACKLISTED.

E Controls echo command characters received in command mode.

E, E0 No echo.
E1 Character echo (default configuration).
Note: in echo mode, all characters sent by your application are returned by the modem
(in command mode).

H Hook control.
H, H0 hang-up.
■ Note: during connection, when the +++ sequence is sent (escape character defined by
S2, standby time before and after the sequence defined by S12) the modem switches
into the command mode, sending the command ATH makes modem hang up.

I Modem identification.
I, I0 Software version.

L Controls the volume of the integrated loudspeaker.

L, L0, L1 Minimum level.
L2 Medium level (default setting).
L3 Maximum level.
■ Rq : the integrated modem loudspeaker permits you to listen to dialing and connection.

M1 Loudspeaker enabled during handshake (phase when the modem
leaves the command mode to make a connection), silent during
connection (default setting).
M2 Loudspeaker always on.
M3 Loudspeaker enabled during handshake, except during dialling, silent
during connection.
■ Note: the L command regulates loudspeaker volume.

O Returns to communication mode after an escape sequence.

■ Note: following an ATO command, the modem sends out a connection message.

■ AT& commands

&A Controls the action of a character sent by DTE during the phase between
dialling and connection (transition phase between command mode and line
mode).
&A, &A0 A character sent by DTE during transition phase causes the modem to
hang up (default setting).
&A1 The modem ignores characters sent by DTE during handshake

&C Controls the CD signal (109 or carrier detection) sent by the modem (DCE, data
circuit terminating equipment) on the V24 interface.
&C, &C0 CD signal always enabled.
&C1 CD signal in normal operation, CD enabled when the carrier is
detected (default setting).
■ Note: the red CD warning light on the front panel indicates the V24 signal.

&D Controls operating mode of DTR signal (108/2, data terminal ready) sent by
the data terminal equipment on the V24 interface.

&D, &D0 DTR signal is ignored.

&D1 When DTR signal drops there is a return to command mode without
disconnection.
&D2 When DTR signal drops there is a return to command mode and dis
connection (default setting).
&D3 When DTR signal drops there is a soft reset (ATZ) and the settings
defined by the &Y command apply.
■ Note: S25 defines the minimum time for DTR off to take effect.

&K Selects the data flow control with terminal. Local flow control avoids loss of
data when terminal rate is higher than modem line rate. Flow control is neces-
sary for communications with compression (see %C command).

&K, &K0 No flow control.

&K3 Flow controlled by signals from the V24 interface: RTS/CTS (default
setting in data mode).
&K4 Control with characters: XON/XOFF.
&K5 XON/XOFF flow control. XON/XOFF characters remain on line.
&K6 RTS/CTS and XON/XOFF flow control (default
setting in fax mode).

&Q Selects operating mode.

&Q, &Q0 Direct mode: no buffering. This mode is rarely used. The line rate
must be identical to the terminal rate, which means that the port rate
must be re-configured on connection.
&Q1,2,3,4 Reserved.
&Q5 Security mode: asynchronous, buffering with error correction and
data compression (default setting).
&Q6 Normal mode, asynchronous, buffering without error correction and
data compression.
■ Note 1: the &Q0 command is identical to the\N1 command (direct mode).
■ Note 2: in &Q5 (security mode), the \N2,3,4 or 5 command allows the type of correction
to be selected.
■ Note 3: the &Q6 command is identical to the\N0 command (normal mode).

&R RTS (105 or Request to send) and CTS (106 or clear to send) signal
management on the V24 interface.
&R, &R0 CTS follows RTS (S26 defines the time lapse)
&R1 RTS ignored and CTS will drop only if required by flow control (default
setting).
■ Note: CTS is an out-going signal, RTS an incoming signal.

&S data station ready (DSR or107) on V24 interface.

&S, &S0 The DSR signal is always enabled (defaut setting).

&S1 The DSR signal is enabled(off/on)when the 2100 Hz answer tone is
detected and stops when the carrier is lost.
■ Note: DSR is an out-going signal.

&V Views the modem’s configuration and the first 4 telephone numbers in the
non-volatile memory.

&W Saves the configuration in the non-volatile memory 0 (AT command, registers,
rate and terminal parity etc.)
&W, &W0 Save the configuration in the non-volatile memory 0.
&W1 Save the configuration in the non-volatile memory 1.
■ Note: the ATZ (soft reset)command recalls the memorised configuration. The AT&Y
command determines the configuration used when power is turned on..

&Y Selects the configuration saved in the non-volatile memory, used when
switching on.
&Y, &Y0 0 configuration enabled when power turned on (default setting)
&Y1 1 configuration enabled when power turned on.

&Zn=x Saves a dialling sequence: x (max 40 characters) in the phonebook at the

address n (0 to 4). The phone book is stored in the non-volatile memory.

E.g. AT&Z0=T12345678 saves the number 12345678 in tone dial format at the address
0 in the non volatile memory.

■ Note: ATDS=n enables a sequence stored at the address n in the phonebook to be

dialled. AT&V command displays the list of numbers.

■ AT\ commands

\N Selects type of connection

\N, \N0 Normal mode, the modem operates in asynchronous buffer

mode. There is neither compression nor correction. DTE rates and
DCE rates may be different. (e.g. to make a V22bis connection, DTE
rate may be 19200 bps).
\N1 Direct mode, data sent from DTE is sent directly on line (DCE),
like-wise on receive. There is no compression, no buffering and no
correction. DTE and DCE rates must be identical (e.g. to make a
V22bis connection, the terminal rate must be 2400 bps).
\N2 Security mode, the modem negotiates error correction with the
remote modem. If the remote modem is not compatible with MNP4
or V42 protocols, the modem disconnects.
\N3 Auto-security mode, the modem negotiates error correction with
the remote modem. If the remote modem is not compatible with
MNP4 or V42 protocols, modem switches to normal mode (Case
\N0) (default setting).
\N4 Security mode, the modem negotiates error correction with the
remote modem. If the modem is not compatible with the V42
protocol, modem disconnects.
\N5 Security mode, the modem negotiates error correction with the
remote modem. If the remote modem is not compatible with the
MNP4 protocol, the modem disconnects.

■ Note 1 : \N2,3,4,5 commands initiate &Q5 (security mode), the \N0 command initiates
&Q6 (normal mode), the \N1 command initiates &Q0 (direct mode).

■ Automatic answer mode

Using the modem on a system sending no Hayes commands to the modem (Automates or others).
The initialisation string is:
- after opening Olicom, choose Teletype terminal, then type in the following commands, followed
by enter:
Without flow control
AT&F&K0S0=2&A1Q1
AT&W0
With software flow control = XON/XOFF
AT&F&K4S0=2&A1Q1
AT&W0
With hardware flow control = RTS/CTS
AT&F&K3S0=2&A1Ql
AT&W0
The rate and format of data depends on the application or the system used to set the modem’s
parameters. The AT/ command allows the application parameters to be checked.
