Set a direct dial line for PM iSeries

For most locations, PM iSeries™ tries to select the correct data telephone number for your location.

You should always verify that the PM iSeries data telephone number is correct. If you do not have information that contains the PM iSeries data telephone number and the PM iSeries support number, contact your local IBM^® support personnel. They can provide you with the proper telephone numbers.

Note: This telephone number is not required if you are transmitting data through the Universal Connection. You need this number only if you are using the direct dial line.

To define the PM iSeries data telephone number or to change the number, do the following steps:

Type GO PM400 from the command line.
Type a 3 from the PM eServer™ iSeries Menu to display the Work with PM eServer iSeries Customization display and press Enter.
On this display, scroll forward until you see the section of the display that shows you the telephone number fields.
Type the correct dialing sequence in the IBM PM eServer iSeries phone number field. For many IBM modems, you are required to use the colon (:) character for dial tone.
