Chapter 5 Command Reference
35
Range:
1 - 255 seconds.
S8
Pause Time for Comma
S8 controls how long the modem pauses when a comma ", " is encountered in a dial string while executing a
dial command.
Range:
1 - 255 seconds.
S9
Carrier Detect Response Time
S9 determines how long a carrier signal must be present for the modem to confirm it. The longer the response
time, the easier it is for the modem to correctly recognize a carrier without mistaking other signals or transient
noise on the line as a carrier.
Range:
1 - 255 tenths of a second.
S10
Lost Carrier To Hang Up Delay
S10 sets the length of time, in tenths of a second, that the modem waits before hanging up after a loss
of carrier. This allows for a temporary loss of carrier without causing the local modem to disconnect.
When S10 is set to 255, the modem functions as if a carrier is always present.
The actual interval the modem waits before disconnecting is the value in S10 minus the value in S9.
Therefore, the value in S10 must be greater than that in S9, or else the modem disconnects before it
recognizes the carrier.
Range:
1 - 255 tenths of a second.
S11
DTMF (Touch-tone) Tone Duration
S11 sets the duration of tone in DTMF dialing. This value has no effect on pulse dialing.
Range:
50 - 255 milliseconds.
S12
Escape Guard Time
S12 determines the escape guard time. The escape guard time is the minimum waiting time required before and
after entering the escape code (three consecutive escape characters) in the on-line state. It is also the maximum
waiting time allowed between any two consecutive escape characters. If the waiting time before or after the
escape code is shorter than the guard time, or if the waiting time between consecutive escape characters is longer
than the guard time, then the modem does not recognize the escape command and stays on-line.
If the escape guard time is set at 0 second, it is impossible to return the modem to command state.
Range:
0 - 255 fiftieths of a second.
