Modem Behavior If you have selected a direct connect port, modem behavior is not used and should
be set to None. The default is None. If you have selected a port on a modem port
group, select modem behavior by pressing the Help (F1) function key. A list is
displayed. Highlight your choice and press Return or the Select Item (F4) function
key.
The DTC checks device modem signals and sets up its own modem signals. You
may want to enable the automatic connection port option for this port. If enabled,
the DTC will establish a connection to the Default Destination as soon as it senses
modem signal activity, see “Default Destination (IP Address or Internet Services
name)” on page 87, and see “Enable Automatic Connection” on page 79.
