Hill <STEVEH @ MIT-MC> Subject: Bell 212AR To: TELECOM @ MIT-MC, INFO-MICRO @ MIT-MC Can someone tell me the signal transition to make from a computer to make a Bell 212AR go back on-hook (ps, what does the AR respresent?). I have been asked to do this, but as usual, no documentation has been made available. The application is to make a bulletin board hang up if no activity is noticed within some set time. ------------------------------ Date: Sat 16 Feb 85 20:22-EST From: "Robert C.
