Par2: Caller ID 1999-11-07 -- Craig Ransom copy of message from -- Craig (The Data Ferret):
If you mean for use in a Clarion program, just use CLACom or WinEvent. You
don't need anything more sophisticated than that!
You will have to have:
1. Caller ID enabled on your phone line. (Hint: getting Caller ID ALSO
forces the phone company to "condition" your phone line. The cost of Caller
ID is usually LESS than getting a "conditioned" line, so you get two-for-one
at a discount!)
2. A Caller ID-enabled modem.
3. Write your code using CLACom or WinEvent. The modem should come with a
manual or help file that will explain what commands to use. The USUAL
command is the "AT #CID=1 S0=255" string. The #CID=1 enables Caller Id and
S0=255 sets up the modem to respond to incoming signals, but to not actually
answer the phone.
Note that using #CID=1 decodes the incoming Caller ID into several lines.
Using #CID=2 brings only one line but it is in Ascii HEX format.
Here are some examples:
AT #CID=1 S0=255
OK
RING
DATE = 1025
TIME = 1851
NMBR = 4105551212
NAME = MARYLAND
RING
AT #CID=2 S0=255
RING
802701083130323531383532020A34313035353531323132070F4D4152594C414E4420202020
20202057
RING
N.B. The Ascii Hex format does NOT wrap to two lines. It is terminated by a
LF or CR/LF.
