- The USRobotics Courier HST modem is the new choice for today's
- sophisticated data communicators who demand the highest standards of quality
- and reliability from their equipment. The $995.00 Courier HST offers a
- combination of price, performance, quality, reliability, and SPEED that no
- other modem can match.
-
- The Courier HST is a fully-featured modem that with special features
- that professional users will find ingenious and indispensable. Standard
- features found on the Courier HST include:
-
- * 9600 BPS -- ERROR-FREE: The Courier HST offers error-free
- communication at data rates up to 9600 bps. It also automatically falls back
- to 2400, 1200, and 300 bps to guarantee compatibility with virtually any
- other medium- or low-speed modem in the field.
-
- * TRELLIS-CODED MODULATION: At 9600 bps, the Courier HST employs
- Trellis-Coded Modulation -- a convolutional coding technique that makes data
- transmission less vulnerable to errors caused by phone network impairments.
- It can tolerate twice the telephone channel noise power as conventional
- modulation, so there are fewer error-control retransmissions. Trellis-coded
- modulation is also less susceptible to impulse type noise.
-
- * ASYMMETRIC FREQUENCY DIVISION: At top speed, data flows in one
- direction at 9600 bps and at 300 bps in the other. The modems automatically
- switch the high-speed channel on demand, i.e., depending on which transmitter
- has the most data to transmit. In practice, the modems seldom need to reverse
- channels, since the asymmetric design reflects typical communication sessions
- brief messages typed at one end of the link, files sent from the other. The
- asymmetrical approach provides the most efficient and economical strategy for
- using ordinary phone channels at high speeds.
-
- * ENHANCED ERROR CONTROL: The HST error control protocol uses
- sophisticated error detection methods to ensure data integrity. In addition,
- design efficiencies have reduced the overhead (extra control information)
- experienced with lower-speed error control protocols. In addition, the
- protocol doesn't slow down on long-distance connections. The result is
- accuracy, greater speed and higher throughput -- approximately 11,000 bps.
-
- * SHORTER RESPONSE TIME: Most 9600 bps modems are most efficient for
- file transfers. You'll find that the Courier HST offers faster response times
- for interactive sessions as well.
-
- * THE COURIER PRODUCT FAMILY: In addition to the Courier HST's new
- features, the modem incorporates the same popular capabilities of other
- products in the Courier line:
-
- * MNP ERROR CONTROL: At 2400 and 1200 bps, the Courier HST implements
- MNP, a sophisticated error and data flow control protocol that ensures error-
- free data transfer. The protocol is especially useful when files containing
- numeric data are being transferred, or computer programs, in which a single
- incorrect character can cause failure.
-
- * INACTIVITY TIMER: You can set the modem to automatically hang up
- after a specified number of minutes if there is no activity on the phone line.
-
- * DATA RATE CONVERSION: You can set your computer's serial port to
- operate at a specific data rate (say 19,200 bps) and the modem will perform a
- data rate conversion for whatever speed modem you call. That means no more
- software problems with automatic baud rate detection.
-
- * BOTTOM PANEL REFERENCE: On the bottom of the Courier case, you'll find
- a command summary and other handy reference information, as well as the bank
- of Dual In-Line Package (DIP) switches used to tailor operations to your
- requirements.
-
- * CALL DURATION REPORTING: The Courier HST records the duration of
- your calls in hours, minutes, and seconds. This feature enables you to
- display and print an audit of your calling activities. You can optionally use
- the modem clock as a real-time clock.
-
- * CALL PROGRESS DETECTION: The Courier HST has additional call-
- progress result codes (screen messages) that let you know when a line is busy,
- a person rather than a modem has answered the phone, there is no dial tone, or
- the distant phone is ringing.
-
- * MODEM SETTINGS DISPLAY: On command, the modem sends a display of its
- current settings, a handy way to check your transmission rate, S-registers,
- and other operational controls.
-
- * HELP SCREENS: You can also display screens that summarize the command
- set, S-register functions, and Dial command options.
-
- * REPEAT COMMAND: You can have the modem continuously repeat a command
- until instructed otherwise. This is especially usefule in dialing services
- whose lines are often busy.
-
- * QUOTE MODE: You can put the modem in Quote Mode
-
- * ADAPTIVE DIALING: You can set the Courier HST so that it auto-
- matically uses touch-tone dialing. If tone dialing doesn't work on the line,
- the modem automatically switches to the slower type, pulse (rotary).
-
- * DATA RATE FALLBACK: In addition to automatically adjusting to the bit
- rate of incoming calls (0-300, 1200, 2400 bits per second, or bps), the
- Courier HST incorporates the V.22bis fallback recommendation when dialing.
- If the called modem operates at 1200 bps, the Courier HST automatically
- drops back to 1200 bps.
-
- * AUTOMATIC RETRAINING: The Courier HST observes the V.22bis retrain
- sequence, which enables modems communicating at 2400 bps to compensate for
- certain problems that may affect data reliability.

- S-REGISTERS SUPPORTED
- ______________________________________________________________________________
-
- REGISTER DEFAULT FUNCTION
-
- S0 S0=0 Sets the number of rings on which to answer when
- or DIP #5 in Auto Answer Mode
-
- S1 S1=0 Counts and stores the number of rings from
-
- S2 S2=43 Sets the ASCII decimal code for the escape code
- character. Default character is "+". A value of
- 128-255 disables the escape code.
-
- S3 S3=13 Sets the ASCII decimal code for the Carriage
- Return character
-
- S4 S4=10 Sets the ASCII decimal code for the Line Feed
- character
-
- S5 S5=8 Sets the ASCII decimal code for the Backspace
- character. A value of 128-255 disables the
- backspace key's delete function.
-
- S6 S6=2 Sets the number of seconds the modem waits before
- dialing. If set below two, the modem resets S6 to
- 2, due to phone company limitations. If the modem
- is set to X2, the modem ignores S6 and dials as
- soon as it detects a dial tone (fast dial)
-
- S7 S7=30 Sets the number of seconds the modem waits for a
- carrier. May be set for much longer duration if,
- for example, the modem is originating an
- international connection.
-
- S8 S8=2 Sets the duration , in seconds, for the pause (,)
- option in the Dial command
-
- S9 S9=6 Sets the required duration of the remote modem's
- carrier signal, in tenths of a second, before
- recognition (Carrier Detect Time)
-
- S10 S10=7 Sets the duration, in tenths of a second, the
- modem waits after loss of carrier before hanging
- up. While we don't recommend use of call waiting
- on data lines, if you use call waiting you may
- want to set this register higher to prevent the
- modem from interpreting a signal for a second call
- as a disconnect from the remote modem.
-
-
- S11 S11=70 Sets the duration and spacing, in milliseconds, of
- dialed Touch-Tones.
-
- S12 S12=50 Sets the duration, in fiftieths of a second, of
- the guard time for the escape code sequence. Must
- be value between 1 and 255.
-
- S13 Bit-mapped register. By default, the bits are set
- to zero (off). Select the bit(s) you want on, and
- set S13 to the total of the values in the "Value
- column. For example, ATS13=20 enables bits 2
- (value = 4) and 4 (value = 16).
