NAME
fone - control ISDN telephone
SYNOPSIS
fone [options...]
DESCRIPTION
Fone manages an AT&T 7506 ISDN telephone set. Program control is supplementary: normal functioning of the phone is not affected. The set must be equipped with the ProPhone1.5 ROM or equivalent. To initialize after the ROM is first installed, push the then the button, and set parameters as follows: DATA MODE: B2 DATA RATE: 19200 PARITY: SPACE LOCAL MODE: AT Fone should be run once per terminal session; it accepts commands typed in its window. If the file exists and is writable, it will contain a log of calls. A permanent log file may be initialized with: chmod +a call.log >call.log Options for fone are: -f file The telephone is controlled through file instead of /dev/eia0. -l file Calls are logged in file instead of call.log. -m The mike is not muted when a call is dialed with the handset down (see below). -t cmd The t command (see below) runs cmd instead of /bin/tel. Commands to fone are read, one per line, from the standard input. c string Call telephone number string. Non-alphanumeric characters are discarded, and the appropriate prefix (9, 91, or none) is guessed from the length of the result. (If there is no active call, and string begins with a digit, the initial c may be omitted.) C string The alphanumeric characters in string are dialed exactly as given. d Drop the active call, or the last party added to a conference call. h Put the active call on hold. k string Add a party to a conference call. The active call is placed on hold, and string is parsed and dialed. Once the second call is connected, the command with no argument adds the new call to the previously active call appearance. If the called party is indis- posed, the commands and will drop the second call and reconnect the first. q string Query the local switch for directory entries matching string (a surname preceded by up to two initials, like or r id Reconnect a call on hold and make it the active call. If the appearance id is omitted, it defaults to that of the lowest numbered call on hold. s Show the id, state, and calling information for each call. t string Run the tel(1) command on string. x string Transfer the active call. The active call is placed in limbo (similar to hold), and string is parsed and dialed. Once the second call is connected, the command with no argument bridges the two calls together and drops the intermediary (you). If the called party is indisposed, the commands and will drop the second call and reconnect the first. . string Transmits the converted Touch-Tone string to the called party; a string that begins with a or a digit doesn't need the preceding (See command c above if no call is active.) ? Print a summary of commands. The command may be given before or after lifting the handset; if the handset is down, the call is placed with the speaker on so you can hear what's happening. The mike is normally muted, but the -m flag (see above) overrides this.
