Factory default = ON.
CHAPTER 3 PROGRAMMING ESTEEM FEATURES HARDWARE RING LINE (Factory Option) SABM = Set Async. Balance Mode When the ESTeem establishes a CONNECT or link with another ESTeem (T/E Light on solid), pin 22 at the ESTeem RS-232C will change from a -15 vdc voltage state to a +15 vdc voltage state. The RING software command allows the user to change the output from a latched state to a pulsed state. To change the state of this line program the following from the COMMAND mode. Factory default = LATCH.
CHAPTER 3 PROGRAMMING ESTEEM FEATURES The IR dongle has a range of approximately three feet, directly in front of the port. The dongle is powered by the serial port and requires no additional power sources. Note: Only one of the three communications ports (RS-232/422/485 connector, IR port or Remote Programming) can be in the Command mode at a time. When either the IR or the Phone port switch to converse mode, the RS-232/422/485 port is blocked from receiving any data.

CHAPTER 6 ANTENNAS EST offers different types of antennas ranging from 1/4 wave to 5/8 wave in physical size. The user choice is dependent on the application. Extreme care must be taken when attaching coax connectors to the antenna feedlines. If there is any error in making this connection the output of the transmitter will be greatly reduced. Communications in the VHF and UHF bands are normally over "Line of Sight (LOS)".
CHAPTER 6 ANTENNAS LIGHTNING ARRESTORS Lightning arrestors should be used on all external building mount antennas for personal protection and to minimize damage to the transceiver during lightning storms. The units should be installed as per manufacturers instructions provided with the device. REFERENCE MATERIAL The ideal reference book for antennas and transmission lines is the “The Radio Amateur's Handbook”, by the Headquarters Staff of the American Radio Relay League.

CHAPTER 7 THEORY OF OPERATION INTRODUCTION ESTEEM HOW IT WORKS SPECTRUM UTILIZATION PACKET PROTOCOLS FLOW CONTROL DATA PRIVACY EFFECTIVE BAUD RATE
CHAPTER 7 THEORY OF OPERATION INTRODUCTION HOW IT WORKS ESTeem wireless modem products provide a "Wireless Solution" by eliminating conventional hardwiring of leased phone lines. Now, as you can probably guess, the ESTeem is a sophisticated piece of technology, however the concept is easy to comprehend if you understand packet radio.
CHAPTER 7 THEORY OF OPERATION communicate at different baud rates. In addition to flow control the ESTeem also has a 4000 byte data buffer on both the receive and transmit buffers in the unit. It's safe to assume that the data you receive is good data or you get nothing at all using the CRC technique. If no ACK is returned after a given delay, the sender assumes the packet was not received and "retries" the transmission.
