There are many communication soflware packages in the market, they have different ways to talk
to the ISDN TA devices. The ISDN multifunction PC Card supports three APIs to connect to the
most popular ISDN communication sofiware packages, they are ISDN AT commands -— also
known as COM Port Emulation or VCOMM, WinISDN, and NDIST API is the interface between
Application Programs (APs) and hardware (PC Card) platform, which lets APs talk to and drive
the ISDN multifunction PC Card physical hardware. Select the appropriate API for your
software packages and applications.
VCOMM COM port emulation:
COM port is commonly used for connecting to the external ISDN devices. With the
VCOMM COM Port emulation , the ISDN multifunction PC Card works exactly like an
ISDN TA (Terminal Adapter) external box, which can run with traditional terminal program
packages, such as Windows 95 Hyper Terminal, Procom Plus for Windows, Telix,
pcAnywhere, etc, to hook up to the on-line services and bulletin boards. In this mode, ISDN
AT commands are usually used to drive the ISDN multifunction PC Card.
The “Fox/Modem over ISDN" and ‘ISDN Phone over ISDN" functions are available
under VCOMM API.
WinISDN: .
An interface to transfer data in parallel mode, can be executed in Windows. The most popular
snfiware package which supports WinISDN API is Chameleon from Neth/Ianager
NDIS :
NDIS is dedicatedly designed for running with Microsoft ISDN Accelerator Pack for Internet
connections.

This chapter introduces the ISDN B-channel protocols supported by the ISDN modem multifunction
PC Card.
4.1 B-channel Data Rate
Mostly the ISDN switches transmit the network signaling data through the D-channel, allowing
both B-channels to be used exclusively for communications purpose. It is so called out-of—band
signaling, This allows for throughput of 64K bps per channel. However, not all ISDN switches
support out-of-band signaling. For switches that do not support out-of-band signaling, network
signaling data is transmitted through the thannels. This downgrades the B-channel bandwidth
to 56K bps for communications use. Clarify the ISDN switches you are connecting to support
56K or 64K B—channel speed, and specify the correct line speed before making ISDN calls.
In VCOMM mode (V. 120, or async-to-sync PPP and Multi-Link mode), use ATIQ
command or Run! ISDN configuration utility (enter OTHER settings folder) to specify the ISDN
B—channel data rate.
ATlQ:O Select 64K bps for B-channel communications
AT! Q=4 Select 56K bps for B-channel communications
In WinlSDN mode, specify the B—channel data rate through the application software (like
Chameleon Internet).
in NDIS mode, specify the B-channel data rate through Dial-Up Networking utility (refer to
Appendix C for details)
4.2 V.120 Protocol (for VCOMM only)
the ISDN switch you are connecting to supports
When you are making V.120 calls, make sure
out-of»band signaling. Otherwise set 56K bps B—channel speed for commmiications. For
“391919 e .
ATlZ=5 Set to V.120 mode
‘ Then, use ATD orVATDT command to. make dialing, that is r; I:
ATDSSSIOOO, or
ATDT5551000
Or specify the V.120 protocol in PROTOCOL settings folder in Run! ISDN configuration
utility.
A a v 110 Protocol (for VCOMM only)
V4] 10 is widely used in Japan and some European countries. Once you set the properAVJ 10
communication mode, there is no need to configure the V. l 10 data rate for the incoming calls. The
ISDN Modem multifunction PC Card will auto-detect the V.110 incoming call data rates and
establish the links.
Use Run! ISDN Configuration Utility or ISDN AT command to enable V.110 protocol and specify
V.110 user rates (line rate). Unlike external ISDN TA box, you don’t need to care about the speed
match between DTE speed and V. l 10 user rate. The ISDN Modem PC Card will convert the speed
for you automatically.
AT!Z=6 Select V.1 10 protocol
ATB? Display current V] 10 user rate for outgoing calls,
ATBO Set V1 10 user rate = 600 bps.
ATBl Set V.1 10 user rate = 1200 bps.
ATB2 Set V.1 10 user rate = 2400 bps.
ATB3 Set V.110 user rate = 4800 bps.
ATB4 Set V.1 10 user rate = 9600 bps.
ATBS Set V.110 user rate = 19200 bps.
ATB6 Set V.1 10 user rate = 38400 bps.
ATB7 Set V.1 10 user rate = 48000 bps
ATBS Set V.1 10 user rate = 57600 bps (for Japanese ISDN only).
4.4 Async to Sync PPP Conversion (for VCOMM only)
More and more lntemet Service Providers (ISPS) are offering their services through dial-up
ISDN lines for higher data bandwidth demands. The equipment used at the service provider’s
location is usually ISDN router or Remote Access Sewer which, unlike Terminal Adapters
(TAs), doesn’t have asynchronous capability. For that reason, ISDN TAs that support only V.120
or other async protocols will not work with the router-based servers at the ISP site.
The support of async to sync PPP conversion lets the Intelligent ISDN TA PC Card connecting
to your router-based ISPs at any time anywhere with the incorporation of TCPIIP software
packages. Furthermore, the Multi-Link PPP protocol makes an 128K bps ISDN highway when
the applications are bandwidth critical.
Set the Single-Link PPP mode:
AT!Z=9 Set async to sync PPP conversion mode
AT&N0=0 Set Single-Link mode
Set the Multi-Link PPP (MLPPP) mode:
AT!Z=9 Set async-to-sync PPP conversion mode
AT&N0=1 Set Multi—Link mode
You can also enable Async-to-Sync PPP Conversion protocol with Run! ISDN Configuration
Utility.
1. Make sure the current active API is VCOMM mode.
2. Double click Utility Manager, and open PROTOCOL settings folder, then select
Async—to-Sync PPP Conversion
4.5 Multi-Link PPP
The technique of combining multiple lines together int
Multi—innk connection. Multi—Link is available when you have more than one
your system, such as two B channels of an ISDN connection lfyou have only one device
configured, then you will not be able to use Multi—Link connections, The Intelligent lSDN TA
PC Card supports the combining of two 64 kbps data channels into the equivalent of a single 128
kbps line, '
o a single dial up connection is known by
dial up device in
Multi-Link depends upon the capabilities of the service or corporate network that you are
dialing. To use Multi-Link, the answering Internet servicefprovider, online service or corporate
LAN must provide Multi—Link capabilities.
4.6 Making Multi-Link Async-to-Sync PPP Conversion Connections
through Microsoft Dial-Up Networking (for VCOMM)
(Set AT!Z=9 and AT&NO=1, or enable Multi-Link PPP in OTHER settings folder in Run! lSDN
dvance) To configure Multi-Link PPP support in Windows 95, double
configuration utility in a
click on the My Computer icon on your Windows 95 desktop, then double click on the Dial Up
Networking (DUN) folder. The DUN folder displays an icon labeled Make New Connection,
plus icons for each of the connections that you have already created If you have not yet created a
connection, double click on Make New Connection to define a connection to the dial up service
you wish to use. When you have created your connection, or if the connection you wish to use
for Multi—Link access already exists in the folder, double click the connection icon, and enter the
lSDN phone gnumbers in the format,
<first_ISDNJJhone_number>+, or
<first_lSDN_phone_number>&, or
1¢eccndary_lSDN_phone_nurnber>,

4.7 Using ISDN AT Command to Establish Multi-Link PPP Connections
(for VCOMM only)
There are three ways to make Multi-Link PPP calls through ISDN AT commands. All the
following methods must be executed under async-to-syne PPP conversron mode (AT!Z=9).
Method 1:
ATlZ=9 Set async-to-sync PPP conversion mode
AT&NO=1 Set Multi-Link mode
AT&Z0= Set the secondary dialed ISDN phone number
For example,
AT!Z=9&N0=1&ZO=5553000
ATDSSS 1000
When you make an ISDN call (5551000), the Intelligent ISDN TA PC Card will make the
second call for you automatically through the pre-stored secondary ISDN phone number in
AT&Z0 (5553000) and bundle the two calls for data transfer.
Method 2:
AT!Z=9 Set async-to—sync PPP conversion mode
AT&N0=1 . Set Multi-Link mode
AT&JI Use single ISDN phone number for Multi-Link PPP connections
For example,
AT!Z=9&N0=1&JI
ATD5 5 5 1 000
In this case, if AT&Jl is set and the users dial one number with the dial string (5551000), the
Intelligent ISDN TA PC Card will automatically dial that number twice and bundle the two calls
for data transfer. If there is any pre—stored ISDN phone number in AT&ZO§' it will be
automatically overwritten by the ISDN phone number (5551000). 7
When AT&JO is set (the second phone number also must be specified in
AT&ZO=) , the Intelligent ISDN TA will dial two difi'erent
ISDN phone numbers to make Multi—Link PPP calls (see also Method 1). If the second ISDN
phone number is not specify in AT&ZO, some unknown problems may occur.
Method 3:
AT!Z=9 Set async-to—sync PPP conversion mode
AT&N0=1 Set Multi-Link mode
ATD<flrst_ISDN_phone_number>+, or
ATD<first_lSDN_phone_number>&, or
ATD<firstJSDN_phone_number>l
For example,
AT!Z=9&N0=1
ATD5551000+5553000, or
ATD5551000&5553000, or
ATD555100015553000
SDN TA PC Card will make two lSDN calls automatically through the two
000 and 5553000) and bundle the two calls for data
ptcd in the dial string to indicate the start of
The intelligent l
separate lSDN phone numbers (5551
transfer. The “ ”, “86”, and “l” modifiers are acct
secondary phone number to dial call for MLl'PP connections.
If there is any pre—stored ISDN phone number in AT&ZO, it will be overwritten by the second
specified ISDN phone number (5553000).
When ATSLJ l is also enabled, and if the users dial two separate numbers using “+”, “85”, and “l”
dial modifiers, the explicitly specified second phone number supersedes the AT&] 1 setting. The
second number given in the dial command (5553000) will be used, rather than dial the first
number (5551000) twice. The only time that the AT&Jl has an effect is when the users dial one
number.
4.8 How to enable Multi-Link PPP Options with Run! lSDN Configuration
Utility (for VCOMM only)
0. Make sure the current active API is VCOMM mode.
1. Double click Utility Manager, and open PROTOCOL settings folde
Sync PPP Conversion.
2. Open OTHER settings folder, select Multi-Link mode.
3. Specify the Call Bundling options. if Use Same Phone Number (AT&J 1) is selected, the
Intelligent ISDN TA will dial the ISDN phone number in dialing string or dialing utility (like
Dial~Up Networking) twice to make Mnlti-Link PPP connections. Once Use Different Phone
Number (AT&J0) is clicked, enter the second ISDN phone number for Multi-Link PPP
connections.
4. Click Enter button to finish the settings.

Chapter 5 lSDN AT Commands
There are ways to configure and control the Intelligent lSDN TA PC Card. One is using Run! ISDN
configuration utility, the other is using ISDN AT command.
AT commands are usually issued to the ISDN TA PC Card to control the TA‘s operation and
configuration. AT commands can only be entered while the TA is in command mode. The format for
entering AT commands is:
TYPE: ATXn .
where X is the AT command, and n is the specific value for that command.
PRESS: Enter
Any command issued is ncloiowledged with a response in either text or numeric values. All commands
and command-values accepted by the modem, the 0K message will be shown; any entries other than
those show OK response cause the ERROR result code
This chapter describes how to use the AT commands for the users who need special parameters in
order to meet their applications. Refer to the appendix for the detailed lSDN AT command definition.
5.1 How to Use ISDN AT Commands
Usually, your fax and data communications software controls the ISDN TA for you. However,
you may also want to use the AT commands. These commands give you complete control over
your ISDN TA. Using the AT commands carefully every time, because they can cause your
software to loose its ability to control the modern. When you do find any AT command causes
ISDN TA maul-function, turn the computer off and then on. That will reset most of the AT
command settings to the factory defaults. '
In order to use an AT command, you need to have done the following:
1. Run your communication software.
2. Configure the software for the appropriate COM port and IRQ setting if necessary.
3. Enter terminal mode (aka command mode, local mode, or direct mode). This is usually the
mode that communications software starts up. Then, type the AT command you need, then
press Enter key. For example,
AT!CI]=0 Set the ISDN TA to connect to AT&T SESS switch
AT!Z=9 Select async to sync PPP Conversion
AT&N0=0 Select Single-Link PPP mode
Mostly the AT commands can also be entered in the same command line. For example,
AT!C0=0!Z=9&N0=0
As shown above, it is not necessary to put spaces between the commands (there is no space
between AT, !C0=0, 1&9, and &N0=0).
The ISDN TA usually returns an response at the next line if it understands the command. The
response is usually OK or ERROR unless the AT command has other extended messages
Add &Wn at the end of the AT command string to save the changes to ISDN TA’s memory
(refer to AT&Wn commands for details), otherwise the changes will get lost when you restart
or shut down the computer. Type AT&F&Wn if you get lost in the AT command
and want to go back to the factory default settings.
5.2 Setting |SDN Phone Numbers and SPIDs by Using ISDN AT
Commands
(1) Unplug the ISDN line
(2) Open Hypertrm in Windows 95, or run any terminal program like Procom Plus for Windows.
(3) Issue AT!Cn and ATan commands to change the settings.
(4) Save the changed settings to one of the user profiles (eg. Profile 0).
Example:
The ISDN phone numbers: 5552000 and 5554000
The DN 0: 5552000
The DN 1: 5554000
The SPID 0: 0555200001
The SPlD 1: 0555400001
(5) Issue following AT command string at temiinal mode of your terminal program:
AT!N0=5552000!N1=55540001CZ=0555200001lC6=0555400001&W0
(6) Press Enter key (Carriage Return).
(7) Plug the lSDN line.
Note: When you re—s‘rart your computer, the settings will be changed back To the
original power-up profile (Profile E). If you wont to set The stored changes
(Profile 0 in this example) 10 be the power-up profile (Profile E), add &Pn
(&P0) to the above command string, Therefore The changes will be loaded
ouromotically when you re-starr your computer next time.
5.3 Exception
Do not precede following commands with an AT prefix or conclude it by pressing Enter.
4—H- Escape sequence
The escape sequence allows the modem to exit data mode and enter on-line command mode
While in ou-line cominand mode, you may communicate directly to your modem using AT
commands. Once you are finished, you may return to data mode using the ATO command.
