To dial a number and have the computer go into terminal mode, you have to
provide an auto-login sequence.  The simplest is <>.  The "<>" tells the
model 100 to go into terminal mode automatically as soon as it recognizes a
carrier.  Commands can be placed inbetween the < and the > to have the model
100 respond in certain ways.  I don't remember the commands though; don't use
them.  SO, if you want to dial a computer at 555-1212 then for the telephone
number type: 5751212<>
and the computer will do the rest.
