Connection Settings
Description
The connection settings are configured using three menu items:
z
Connect when DCD is on
—Enables or disables link connection when DCD is 
asserted. If 
Connect when characters are received
 is also enabled and is satisfied 
first, then 
Connect when DCD is on
 has no effect on the link connection.
z
Connect when characters are received
—Enables or disables the link connection 
when incoming characters are received. If 
Connect when DCD is on
 is also enabled 
and is satisfied first, then 
Connect when characters are received
 has no effect on the 
link connection.
z
Connect without DSR, DCD or received characters
—When this menu item is enabled, 
Connect when DCD is on
 and 
Connect when characters are received
 are forced off and 
the retry interval is set to 
30
. If the link application type is set to 
LOGIN
 or 
ALIAS
connection will occur as soon as the link is enabled (completely independent from 
the DCD and incoming character status). If the link application type is set to 
DESTINATION
, the link will connect immediately when an outgoing call is placed to 
the destination (also completely independent from DCD and incoming character 
status).

Note:
Dial/Connect when DSR is on
 has no effect on AI296
 
operation.
