- a TA supporting level B performs the operations and events of level A, and also supports DTMF detection while
in the transmit state.
- a TA supporting level C performs the operations and events of level B, and also supports double DTMF tone
generation.
Since DTMF detection and generation cannot be guaranteed over current digital networks, it follows that none of the
three levels of service can be supported.
C.2 Commands
C.2.1 Select mode +FCLASS
This command puts the TA into a particular mode of operation (data, fax, voice etc.). This causes the TA to process
information in a manner suitable for that type of information (rather than for other types of information). The values and
meanings of parameter <n> are specified in the following table.
<n>
Mode
0 data
1 fax class 1 (TIA-578-A)
1.0 fax class 1 (ITU-T T.31 [11])
2 fax (manufacturer specific)
2.0 fax class 2 (ITU-T T.32 [12] and TIA-592)
3...7 reserved for other fax modes
8 voice
9...15 reserved for other voice modes
16..79 reserved
80 VoiceView (Radish)
81..255 reserved

(list of supported <n>s)
Voice mode is of particular interest here, and has an additional result code +VCON. Specifically, +VCON indicates that
the TA is entering the voice command mode and there is a voice connection to at least one audio input or output. This
presupposes that some mechanism has previously initiated a connection to that audio I/O.
C.2.2 Buffer threshold setting +VBT
This refers to integers <lo> and <hi> that indicate levels within the TA transmit buffer at which flow control is
asserted and deasserted. The buffer is used for averaging out the irregular timing of data from the computer, so that the
data becomes synchronous and may be sent to some audio device.
