Escape The Escape Character (0 to 127 decimal
Character value) allows characters to be interpreted as
commands instead of data. Normal operation
will not require this parameter to be
changed. However, there may be a situation
where an external device would echo the
escape character sent to the dial-in modem.
This echo could place the DS71-MD2
modem in the command mode. Changing
the escape character eliminates this problem.
Default Escape Character is 43, which is
2B Hex or a plus sign (+).
Select #4, “Escape Character,” from the
Local Modem Setup menu, followed by
<cr>. The DS71-MD2 displays the current
Escape Character and asks if you want to
change:
Escape Character is............... 43 (+)
Change It? (Y/N) :
Type “Y“ for yes followed by <cr>. The
DS71-MD2 responds:
Enter Decimal Value for Escape Character (0 to 127):
or press ENTER for no change
To change the escape character, enter the
decimal value of the Hex character to be
used as an escape character. The DS71-
MD2 displays the new escape character and
asks if you want to change. If there are no
further changes type <cr>. The DS71-MD2
stores changes in non-volatile memory and
returns to the Local Modem Setup menu.
