- <dd>Specify the <i><tt>threshold</tt></i> in PPM to write the frequency file, with default 0.1 PPM. The frequency file is inspected each hour. If the difference between the current frequency and the last value written exceeds the threshold, the file is written and the <tt><em>threshold</em></tt> becomes the new threshold value. If the threshold is not exceeded, it is reduced by half. This is intended to reduce the frequency of unnecessary file writes for embedded systems with nonvolatile memory.</dd>

<dt id="phone"><tt>phone <i>dial</i> ...</tt></dt>
<dd>This command is used in conjunction with the ACTS modem driver (type 18). The arguments consist of a maximum of 10 telephone numbers used to dial USNO, NIST or European time services. The Hayes command ATDT&nbsp;is normally prepended to the number, which can contain other modem control codes as well.</dd>
