Abstract: A MODEM can shorten the processing time of an interface disposed between a data terminal equipment (DTE) and the MODEM. The MODEM stores an object program of a procedure in a memory and switches an operational mode of the MODEM automatically corresponding to the prescribed procedure thereby executing the procedure corresponding to the current operational mode. The MODEM further comprises a timer which monitors the transits time between a completed procedure and the next procedure, and the MODEM starts the process of a specified operational mode based on a mode-setting-instruction of the procedure as well as monitoring the transitions time by using the timer, and executing a next specified operational mode when the timer times out, thereby allowing the MODEM to perform the various operational mode switches.

Abstract: A data communication apparatus includes a communication section that performs a pre-communication protocol and transmits data to a destination terminal. A memory stores data and communication parameters corresponding to each destination terminal, the communication parameters being utilized to perform communication with the destination terminal. When data corresponding to a destination terminal data is stored in the memory, a controller performs the pre-communication protocol with the destination terminal, using the stored communication parameters corresponding to the destination terminal. When a communication error occurs in a communication with a particular destination terminal having data stored in the memory, a memory controller deletes communication parameters corresponding to the particular destination terminal from the memory.

Abstract: A data communication apparatus is provided with a VoIP processor and a modem that interchangeably executes a standard communication mode and a high-speed communication mode, the standard communication mode exchanging the voice packet at a predetermined transfer rate, the high-speed communication mode exchanging the voice packet at a rate faster than the rate of the standard communication mode. When capability information of an opposing apparatus is obtained, in accordance with a predetermined communication protocol, and it is detected that the opposing apparatus has the high-speed communication mode, the high-speed communication mode is selected for execution.

Abstract: A data communication apparatus includes a communication section that performs a pre-communication protocol with a destination terminal and transmits data to a destination terminal. A memory stores data and communication parameters corresponding to each destination terminal, the communication parameters being utilized to perform communication with the destination terminal. When destination terminal data is stored in the memory, a controller reads the communication parameters corresponding to the destination terminal from the memory, performs the pre-communication protocol with the destination terminal, using the read communication parameters, and omits at least a communication protocol for line probing.

Abstract: A vibration damper little depending on temperature, capable of damping plural resonance vibrations over a wide frequency region as well as damping a specific frequency vibration is provided. The vibration damper comprises a housing formed of a rigid material, having an internal space and fixed to a vibration transmitting member, an elastic body inserted in the internal space not bonded thereto with a gap in a direction of vibration of the housing, and a weight integrally supported by the elastic body so as not to touch the housing. The elastic body and the weight form a dynamic damper.

Abstract: The data transmission apparatus comprises a memory to store control information of a modem at each destination address, and a communication control section for issuing a short procedure shift notification signal to execute the short communication procedure when the control information is stored at the memory, and issuing an ordinary communication initiation signal to execute the ordinary communication procedure when the control information is not stored at the memory.

Abstract: A data communication apparatus includes a communication section that performs pre-communication protocol to exchange a communication function with a communication destination terminal, and transmits data to the communication destination terminal after the pre-communication protocol. A detector detects whether or not the communication destination terminal can perform a short protocol in which at least a communication protocol for line probing is omitted. When the detector detects that the communication destination terminal can perform the short protocol, a controller obtains communication parameters from the communication destination terminal, stores the obtained communication parameters in a memory in association with the communication destination terminal. The stored communication parameters are utilized to perform the short protocol.

Abstract: This invention eliminates a time needed for communication handshaking by executing pre-communication protocol based on a prestored communication parameter. Specifically, at the time of carrying out a normal protocol, a modulation mode, a communication protocol, a modem parameter and a modem's optimal training time, etc., which are set by four communication channels, e.g., a communication channel for selecting a modulation mode, a communication channel for implementing line probing, a communication channel for modem training, and a communication channel for setting a modem parameter, are stored for each destination communication apparatus, and subsequent communication is implemented based on the stored information.

Abstract: A modem parameter required for a modem apparatus is stored in a memory for each telephone number of a communication destination in advance based on past communications. At a communication time, a receiver side is notified of an execution of the short protocol by a QTSD signal, and sequentially a QINFO signal that includes the modem parameter is transmitted. Since the modem parameter is received by the communication destination, the pre-protocols such as exchange of parameter, etc., are shortened so that communication time can be shortened. Moreover, since the transmission of modem parameter is repeated until it is confirmed that the communication destination receives the modem parameter, occurrence of communication errors can be avoided so that the shortened pre-protocols can be surely executed.
