set up the modem, you must use the new password.

To Change the Remote Escape Character

To further improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration
escape character either locally or remotely. The remote configuration escape charac-
ter is stored in register S9. The factory default is 37, which is the ASCII code for the
percent character (%). Setting S9 to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely.

CAUTION:

If you do this remotely, you won’t be able to change it back remotely.

1. Establish a remote configuration link with the remote modem as described in

“Basic Procedure.”

2. Type ATS9=n, where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration es-

cape character, and then press E

NTER

.

3. Save the new value by typing AT&W and pressing E

NTER

.

4. Type ATO and press E

NTER

to exit remote configuration.
