Device::Modem::UsRobotics(3)               User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       Device::Modem::UsRobotics - USR modems extensions to control self-mode

SYNOPSIS
         use Device::Modem::UsRobotics;

         my $modem = Device::Modem::UsRobotics->new( port => '/dev/ttyS1' );
         $modem->connect( baudrate => 9600 );
         my %info = $modem->messages_info();
         print "There are $info{unreleased_voice_msg} unread voice messages on $info{stored_voice_msg} total\n";
         print "There are $info{unreleased_fax_msg} unread fax messages on $info{stored_fax_msg} total\n";

         # Get details about message n. X
         my %msg = $modem->message_info(1);

         print 'This is a ', ($msg{type} == 2 ? 'voice' : 'fax'), 'message', "\n";
         print 'It came from no. ', $msg{callerid}, "\n";
         # ...

         # Now clear all messages
         $modem->clear_memory();

WARNING
       This module is not documented yet, and it is a rough work in progress.
       Until now, it correctly reads voice/fax messages information, but when
       saving voice messages to disk, sometimes they are incorrectly decoded.

       So, if you need a working program, check out the good old TkUsr by
       Ludovic Drolez, unless you want to help develop
       Device::Modem::UsRobotics.

DOCS TO BE COMPLETED FROM NOW.....
       Yes, I'm a bad boy :-)

DESCRIPTION
       Bla Bla Bla...

METHODS
   clear_memory()
       Used to permanently clear the memory space of the modem. There are
       separate memory spaces, one for voice/fax messages and one for user
       settings. Examples:

               $modem->clear_memory('user');     # or $modem->clear_memory(1)
           $modem->clear_memory('messages'); # or $modem->clear_memory(2)

       To clear both, you can use:

           $modem->clear_memory('all');      # or $modem->clear_memory(0);

       Parameters:

       $memtype
           String or integer that selects the type of memory to be cleared,
           where 0 is for "all", 1 is for "user" memory, 2 is for "messages"
           memory.
