MODEMSETTINGS
The MODEMSETTINGS
structure contains information about a modem s
configuration.
typedef struct modemsettings_tag {
DWORD dwActualSize; // size of returned data, in
bytes

seconds

// negotiated options (read only) for
current or last call

Members
dwActualSize
Specifies the
size, in bytes, of the data actually returned to the application. This member
may be less than the dwRequiredSize member if an application did not
allocate enough space for the variable-length portion of the structure.
dwRequiredSize
Specifies the
number of bytes required for the entire MODEMDEVCAPS
dwDevSpecificOffset
Specifies the
offset of the provider-defined portion of the structure, in bytes relative to
the beginning of the structure.
dwDevSpecificSize
Specifies the
size of the provider-defined portion of the structure, in bytes.
dwCallSetupFailTimer
Specifies the
maximum number of seconds the modem should wait, after dialing is completed,
for an indication that a modem-to-modem connection has been established. If a
connection is not established in this interval, the call is assumed to have
failed. This member is equivalent to register S7 in Hayes compatible
modems.
dwInactivityTimeout
Specifies the
maximum number of seconds of inactivity allowed after a connection is
established. If no data is either transmitted or received for this period of
time, the call is automatically terminated. This time-out is used to avoid
excessive long distance charges or online service charges if an application
unexpectedly locks up or the user leaves.
dwSpeakerVolume
Specifies the
volume level of the monitor speaker when the speaker is on. This member can be
one of the following values:
Value |
Meaning |
MDMVOL_LOW |
Low volume. |
MDMVOL_MEDIUM |
Medium
volume. |
MDMVOL_HIGH |
High
volume. |
The MODEMDEVCAPS
dwSpeakerMode
Specifies
when the speaker should be on. This member can be one of the following values:
Value |
Meaning |
MDMSPKR_OFF |
The speaker
is always off. |
MDMSPKR_CALLSETUP |
The speaker
is on until a connection is established. |
MDMSPKR_ON |
The speaker
is always on. |
MDMSPKR_DIAL |
The speaker
is on until a connection is established, except that it is off while the
modem is actually dialing. |
dwPreferredModemOptions
Specifies the
modem options requested by the application. The local and remote modems
negotiate modem options during call setup; this member specifies the initial
negotiating position of the local modem.
The dwModemOptions
member of the MODEMDEVCAPS
dwNegotiatedModemOptions
Specifies the
modem options that are actually in effect. This member is filled in after a
connection is established and the local and remote modems negotiate modem
options.
The dwModemOptions
member of the MODEMDEVCAPS structure specifies the modem options
supported by the local modem. For a list of modem options, see the description
of the MODEMDEVCAPS structure.
dwNegotiatedDCERate
Specifies the
DCE rate that is in effect. This member is filled in after a connection is
established and the local and remote modems negotiate modem modulations.
abVariablePortion
Contains
provider-defined information, if any.
