Diagnosis and Testing of the Path
3.1
Line Optimization
To query the line quality and the received signal level a connection must be established
between the two modems (CONNECT).
Use the Escape sequence “+++” (with > 1 second pause before and after the sequence) to
switch to the online command mode.
Activate the level with the command AT%L. The displayed value in the scale – dBm is not
equivalent to the line level but the level within the data processor part of the modem.
The modem will be able to recognize a remote terminal up to the level value –40. The
optimum values will be around 20.
The command AT%Q queries the connection quality. Lower values indicate a better line
quality with a less significant error rate – for connections that have not been error-
corrected – and a higher data transfer rate for error-corrected connections.
The command ATO terminates the online command mode.

Error Sources
If the modems don’t establish a CONNECT at all, the following reasons could apply:
¾
The two remote terminals were set to different connection protocols (V.xx,
to be set with AT+MS=<n>).

¾
The two remote terminals are fixated on different error correction proto-
cols (None, MNP, V.42).

The baud rate or the data format of the serial interface has been set incor-

Data Protocol Dependant Settings
Depending on the type of the transmitted data it may be necessary to change the basic
settings of the modem.
This concerns on the one hand the flow control (RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF, or no flow control)
and on the other hand the error correction/data compression.
The flow control is set with the command AT&K<n>, like for a switched line modem. Per
default the flow control is deactivated (AT&K0).
Error correction and data compression are activated in the factory settings.

If this leads to invalid delays for short data messages, the data compression
should be switched off with the command AT%C0+DS44=0 first.
