modems.ini
The Digital Sprite 2 supports a number of modems that can be configured in the Serial Port &
Telemetry web page, however if a modem is not supported then the configuration and
operational information for the modem can be added to the modems.ini file.
An example of the information stored in this .ini file is shown:
# modem description file
# These modem strings will be installed prior to the fixed strings and can therefore be
# used to update the initialisation strings
# format:
# [code]
# name=descriptive text name
# reset=string to reset device to factory defaults
# init=initialisation string
# save=string to save current settings
# negate_dtr=0 assert DTR line during modem initialisation
# negate_dtr=1 negate DTR line during modem initialisation
# type=0,1,2 type of PPP device
# 0 - modem / terminal adaptor (default)
# 1 – router
# 2 - always on eg GPRS, CDPD
# code is the product code as returned by ATI (if appropriate)
Note: There is a corresponding web page that is the usual interface for configuring
this information; however this file has also be supplied.
