Function

Escapes to online-command mode. Does not require the ATprefix or a carriage return.

Displays help for basic commands.

Manual Answer. Goes off hook in answer mode. Pressing any key before the connection is complete aborts the operation.

S-Registers

To change a setting, use the ATSr=n command, where r is the register number and n is a decimal value from 0 to 255 (unless otherwise indicated).

Example: ATS7=120 sets the time that the modem will wait for a connection from your carrier to 120 seconds.

To view a setting, use the ATSr? command, where r is the register number.

Note: These S-Register values are the default settings for North America. Your default settings may be different if you live outside North America.

Function

Sets number of rings on which to answer in Auto Answer mode. When set to 0, Auto Answer is disabled.

Counts and stores number of rings from an incoming call. (S0 must be greater than 0.)

Stores ASCII decimal code for the escape code character. Default character is +. A value of 128–255 disables escape code.

Stores ASCII code for the Carriage Return character. Valid range is 0–127.

Stores ASCII decimal code for the Line Feed character. Valid range is 0–127.

Stores ASCII decimal code for the Backspace character. A value of 128–255 disables Backspace key's delete function.

Sets number of seconds modem waits before dialling. If Xn is set to X2 or X4, this is time-out length if no dial tone.

Sets number of seconds modem waits for a carrier. May be increased as needed, for example to allow modem time to establish an international connection.

Sets duration, in seconds, for pause (,) option in the Dial (Dn) command. Valid range is 0–32.

Sets required duration, in tenths of a second, of remote modem's carrier signal before recognition by your USRobotics modem.

Sets duration, in tenths of a second, that modem waits to hang up after loss of carrier. This guard time allows your modem to distinguish a line disturbance from a true disconnect (hang up) by the remote modem.

Note: If you set S10 = 255, the modem will not hang up when carrier is lost. Dropping DTR hangs up the modem.

Sets duration and spacing, in milliseconds, of dialled tones.

Sets duration, in fiftieths of a second, of guard time for escape code sequence (+++).

Test timer for &T loopback testing. Sets the time in seconds of testing before the modem automatically times out and terminates the test. When set to 0, the timer is disabled. Valid range is 1–255.

Sets length, in 10-millisecond units, of breaks sent from the modem to the computer; applies to MNP or V.42 mode only.

Stores ASCII decimal code for the XON character.

Stores ASCII decimal code for the XOFF character.

Sets duration, in seconds, for the sleep mode timer. The timer activates when there is no activity in the off-line command state. At timeout, the modem goes into standby mode. S24 = 0 disables the timer. Valid range is 0, 5–65.

Value

Result

Disables V.34 modulation.

Enables V.34 modulation.

Sets the duration, in minutes, for the inactivity timer. The timer activates when there is no data activity on the line; at timeout, the modem hangs up. S30=0 disables the timer. Valid range is 0–255.

Specifies the action to be taken in the event of negotiation failure when error control is selected.

Used in conjunction with S48, LAPM error control and feature negotiation to negotiate certain connection types.

Sets the maximum line data rate. In V.90 mode, sets the upstream V.34 rate.

Once a connection type (V.90) is determined, forces a particular downstream rate. A value of zero disables both connection types and allows a more reliable V.34 connection. The default value of 1 lets the modem select the downstream rate automatically. Other values force the downstream rate, with fallback to V.34 if unsuccessful at the configured rate.

Enables or disables error control and feature negotiation. Works in conjunction with S36 to determine the type of error correction method to use.
