THE AUTO DIALER
The automatic dialer allows the computer to
dial the 493-5505 dataphone. The number is dialed
by first doing a CONI to find out if the phone is
busy, then doing a CONO to set up things, and then
a DATAO of the number. The dialer interface will
interupt when it thinks something happened that you
should know about, such as the number you dialed
answered, or it didn't. The format of the instructions
is as follows:

The following is a brief description of what each of the bits means.
DSS DATA SET STATUS
When this bit is on, it means that you have reached a Dataphone
snd are connected to it.
DSS←1 DATA SET STATUS went on.
This means a Dataphone answered. This bit also comes on immediately
after a VOICE call has finished dialing.
DSS←0 DATA SET STATUS went off.
This means the Dataphone you called hung up. You should
do likewise.
DLO DATA LINE OCCUPIED
The dialer or its Dataphone is being used.
¬ACR NOT ABANDON CALL AND RETRY
After the number is dialed, if a Dataphone has not answered
within 15 seconds, this bit goes off. It is a suggestion
that you hang up and try again later. It has no effect on
the call.
VOICE VOICE MODE
When this bit is set, the dialer will dial the call and then
transfer the line to the A/D and D/A converters (this feature
is not fully implemented as yet).
¬PWI NOT POWER INDICATION
Bit is on when there is no power to the dialer. Good for
disabling outgoing calls.
HANG UP
Sure enough, it hangs up a dialer initiated call.
INTERRUPT
Dialer is interrupting for some reason. Possible reasons are
DSS←1, DSS←0, ACR, attempting to dial with DLO, ¬PWI.
CLEAR INTERRUPT
Clears interrupt. An interrupt will occur when there is any
significant change in status.
INTERRUPT ENABLE
Enables dialer to interrupt when interrupt bit is on.
PI33-PI35
PI channel
AREA
This bit requires an Area Code to be dialed. Calls to the 415
dialing area must not have an Area Code.
