[net.micro] How compatible is US ROBOTICS' PASSWORD to HAYES SMARTDEM?

sllu@ucla-cs.UUCP (03/22/85)

Recently, I have purchased a 1200 Modem, the Password, from U.S ROBOTICS.
I was told that it is a Hayes compatible modem. Everything went
really well until a real test came about. Because of the security
reason, I am dialing a computer (modem) which will call me back after
I called and entered a password. Now if I have a Hayes modem the command
for it is:

     ATDT2221111,,,,,,xxxxxxxxxxx,;H


     (where :  222-1111 is the phone number of the computer I am dialing in)
     (         xxxxxxxxxxxxx is the password for me to enter the system    )


Now the computer will call me back and my modem will respond saying:

     RING

All I have to do next, if I have a Hayes, is :

     ATDT *

Now back to reality, my PASSWORD has two incompatibilities:

    (1) It does not have command ";" and "H"

    (2) It refuses to accept command  "ATDT *" after "RING" is displayed.

QUESTION: ***************

    Is there a way to perform the same task with my PASSWORD?


Thank you very much!
