+.Tn DN-11
+serial autocall unit interface
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "dn0 at uba? csr 0160020 vector dnintr"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+NOTE: This driver has not been ported from
+.Bx 4.4
+yet.
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm dn
+device provides an interface through a
+.Tn DEC
+.Tn DN-11
+(or equivalent
+such as the Able Quadracall) to an auto-call unit
+.Pq Tn ACU .
+To place an outgoing call one forks a sub-process which
+opens the appropriate call unit file,
+.Pa /dev/cua?
+and writes the phone number on it.
+The parent process
+then opens the corresponding modem line
+.Pa /dev/cul? .
+When the connection has been
+established, the open on the modem line
+.Pa /dev/cul?
+will return and the process will be connected.
+A timer is normally used to timeout the opening of
+the modem line.
+.Pp
+The codes for the phone numbers are:
+.Bl -column "0-9" description -offset indent
+.It 0-9 number to be dialed
+.It * dial * (`:' is a synonym)
+.It # dial # (`;' is a synonym)
+.It \- delay 20 milliseconds
+.It < end of phone number (`e' is a synonym)
+.It = delay for a second dial tone (`w' is a synonym)
+.It f force a hangup of any existing connection
+.El
+.Pp
+The phone number to be dialed must be presented as one contiguous string.
+.Pp
+By convention, even numbered call units are for 300 baud
+modem lines, while odd numbered units are for 1200 baud lines.
+For example,
+.Pa /dev/cua0
+is associated with a 300 baud modem line,
+.Pa /dev/cul0 ,
+while
+.Pa /dev/cua1
+is associated with a 1200 baud modem line,
+.Pa /dev/cul1 .
+For devices such as the Quadracall which simulate multiple
+.Tn DN-11
+units, the minor device indicates which outgoing modem to use.
