9.SH NAME
10rv \- Racal/Vadic ACU interface
11.SH DESCRIPTION
12The racal/vadic ACU interface is provided by the files
13.I /dev/cua[01]
14which is a multiplexed file, and by the daemon
15.I dnd
16which monitors the file, simulating a standard DN dialer.
17To place an outgoing call one forks a sub-process
18trying to open
19.I /dev/cul?
20and then opens the corresponding file
21.I /dev/cua?
22file and writes a number on it.
23The daemon translates the call to proper format for the
24Racal/Vadic interface, and monitors the progress of the call
25recording accounting information for later use.
26.PP
27The codes for the phone numbers are the same as in the DN interface:
