.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.Cd "device dn0 at uba? csr 0160020 vector dnintr"
|
|
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm dn
|
|
|
|
device provides an interface through a
|
|
|
|
.Tn DEC
|
|
|
|
.Tn DN-11
|
|
|
|
(or equivalent
|
|
|
|
such as the Able Quadracall) to an auto-call unit
|
|
|
|
.Pq Tn ACU .
|
|
|
|
To place an outgoing call one forks a sub-process which
|
|
|
|
opens the appropriate call unit file,
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cua?
|
|
|
|
and writes the phone number on it. The parent process
|
|
|
|
then opens the corresponding modem line
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cul? .
|
|
|
|
When the connection has been
|
|
|
|
established, the open on the modem line
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cul?
|
|
|
|
will return and the process will be connected.
|
|
|
|
A timer is normally used to timeout the opening of
|
|
|
|
the modem line.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The codes for the phone numbers are:
|
|
|
|
.Bl -column xxxx -offset indent
|
|
|
|
0-9 number to be dialed
|
|
|
|
* dial * (`:' is a synonym)
|
|
|
|
# dial # (`;' is a synonym)
|
|
|
|
\- delay 20 milliseconds
|
|
|
|
< end of phone number (`e' is a synonym)
|
|
|
|
= delay for a second dial tone (`w' is a synonym)
|
|
|
|
f force a hangup of any existing connection
|
|
|
|
.El
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The phone number to be dialed must be presented as one contiguous string.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
By convention, even numbered call units are for 300 baud
|
|
|
|
modem lines, while odd numbered units are for 1200 baud lines.
|
|
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cua0
|
|
|
|
is associated with a 300 baud modem line,
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cul0 ,
|
|
|
|
while
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cua1
|
|
|
|
is associated with a 1200 baud modem line,
|
|
|
|
.Pa /dev/cul1 .
|
|
|
|
For devices such as the Quadracall which simulate multiple
|
|
|
|
.Tn DN-11
|
|
|
|
units, the minor device indicates which outgoing modem to use.
