RMM-288 Rack Mount Modem

S-Registers

 

Note: To change a setting, use the ATSr=n command,where r is the register and n is a decimal value from zeroto 255 (unless otherwise indicated).[ View "AT"Command Info ]

Register Default Function
S0 1 Sets the number of rings on which to answer in Auto Answermode. When set to 0 (zero), Auto Answer is disabled. Auto Answer is alsocontrolled by DIP Switch 5.
S1 0 Counts and stores the number of rings from an incomingcall. Register S0 must be greater than 0.
S2 43 Stores the ASCII decimal code for the escape code character.The default character is +. Any value between 128 and 255 will disablethe escape code.
S3 13 Stores the ASCII code for the Carriage Return character.Valid range is 0 to 127.
S4 10 Stores the ASCII decimal code for the Line Feed character.Valid range is 0 to 127
S5 8 Stores the ASCII decimal code for the Backspace character.Any value between 128 and 255 will disable the Backspace key's delete function.
S6 2 Sets the number of seconds the modem will wait before dialing.If Xn is set to X2 or X4, S6 determines the timeout length whenno dial tone is detected.
S7 60 Sets the number of seconds the modem will wait for a carrier.Often used to select a longer duration when the modem is originating aninternational connection.
S8 2 Sets the duration (in seconds) for the Dial command pauseoption (,).
S9 6 Determines the length of time (in tenths of a second) theremote modem's carrier signal must continue in order to be recognized bythe RMM.
S10 7 Sets the length of time (in tenths of a second) the modemwill wait after loss of carrier before hanging up. Allows the modem todistinguish between a line hit (or other momentary break) from a true disconnect(hang up) by the remote modem.

Although it is not recommended to connect to a line with call waiting,the S10 register can be adjusted upward to prevent the modem from misinterpretingthe second call signal as a remote disconnect. If call waiting is a problem,it is preferable to contact your phone company to determine the commandto temporarily disable call waiting (typically *70W). For example: ATDT*70W phone number.

Note: If S10 = 255, the modem will not hang up when the carrieris lost. Dropping DTR hangs up the modem.
S11 70 Sets the duration and spacing (in milliseconds) for tonedialing.
S12 50 Sets the duration (in fiftieths of a second) of the guardtime for the escape code sequence (+++).
S13 0 Bit-mapped register. Select the bit(s) you want ON andset S13 to the total of the values in the Value Column. For example, ATS13=17enables bit 0 (value is 1) and bit 4 (value is 16).
Bit Value Result
0 1 Reset when DTR drops.
1 2 Reset non-MNP transmit buffer from 1.5K to 128 bytes*
2 4 Set Backspace key to delete.
3 8 On DTR signal, autodial the number stored in NVRAM at position 0.
4 16 At Power-On/Reset, autodial the number stored in NVRAM at position0.
5 32 Reserved
6 64 Reserved
7 128 Disconnect on escape code.
* The 1.5K-byte non-ARQ buffer allows data transfer withXmodem and Ymodem type file transfer protocols without using flow control.

The 128 Byte option allows remote users with slower modems to prevent transmitteddata from scrolling off screen. When a remote user sends an XOFF (Ctrl-S)to your computer and transmission stops, data in transit from your modem'sbuffer does not exceed the size of the remote user's screen. This is alsohelpful when a remote modem/printer application is losing characters.
S14 0 Reserved
S15 0 Bit-mapped register setup. To set the register, see instructionsfor S13.
Bit Value Result
0 1 Disable ARQ/MNP for V.22.
1 2 Disable ARQ/MNP for .22 bis.
2 4 Disable ARQ/MNP for V.32 / V.32bis / V.32terbo.
3 8 Disable MNP handshake.
4 16 Disable MNP level 4.
5 32 Disable MNP level 3.
6 64 MNP incompatibility.
7 128 Disable V.42 operation.
S16 0 Bit-mapped register setup. To set the register, see instructionsfor S13.
Bit Value Result
0 --- Reserved
1 2 Touch tone dialing test.
2 - 7 --- Reserved
S17 0 Reserved
S18 0 Test timer for &Tn loopback testing. Sets the lengthof time (in seconds) the modem will wait before automatically timing outand terminating the test. When set to 0, the timer is disabled. Valid rangeis 1 - 255.
S19 0 Sets the duration (in minutes) for the Inactivity Timer.The timer activates when there is no data activity on the phone line. Attime out, the modem hangs up. S19 = 0 disables the timer.
S20 0 Reserved
S21 10 Sets the length (in 10 millisecond units) of Breaks sentfrom the modem to the computer. Applies to MNP or V.42 mode only.
S22 17 Stores the ASCII decimal code for the XON character.
S23 19 Stores the ASCII decimal code for the XOFF character.
S24 0 Reserved
S25 5 Sets the duration (in hundredths of a second) that DTRmust be dropped in order to be interpreted as a DTR loss. Allows the modemto differentiate between a random glitch and a true DTR loss.

In most cases, the default value can be used. The S25 register is usefulfor setting compatibility with older systems running under older operatingsoftware.
S26 0 Reserved
S27 0 Bit mapped register setup. To set the register, see theinstructions for S13.
Bit Value Result
0 1 Enables ITU-T V.21 modulation at 300 bps for overseas calls; in V.21mode, the modem answers both overseas and domestic (U.S. And Canada) calls,but only originates V.21 calls (Default Bell 103).
1 2 Enables un-encoded (non-trellis coded) modulation in V.32 mode.
2 4 Disables V.32 modulation.
3 8 Disables 2100 Hz answer tone to allow two V.42 modems to connect morequickly.
4 16 Enables V.23 fallback mode.
5 32 Disables V.32bis mode.
6 64 Reserved
7 128 Software compatibility code. This setting disables the codes and displaysthe 9600 code instead. The actual rate of the call can be viewed on theATI6 screen. Used for unusual software incompatibilities. Some softwaremay not accept 7200, 12000 and 14400 bps or greater result codes.
S28 0 Eliminates the V.32 answer tones for a faster connection.
8 Default item, all times are in tenths of a second.
255 Disables all connections except V.32 at 9600 bps.

3 8 Disable 64S-4D trellis encoding.
4 16 Disable nonlinear coding.
5 32 Disable TX level deviation.
6 64 Disable Pre-emphasis.
7 128 Disable Pre-coding.
S35 - S37 --- Reserved
S38 0 Sets an optional delay (in seconds) before a forced hang-upand clearing of the Transmit buffer when DTR drops during an ARQ call.This allows time for a remote modem to acknowledge receipt of all transmitteddata before it is disconnected.

When set at the default (0), the modem immediately hangs up when DTR drops.

This option applies only to connections terminated by dropping DTR. Ifthe modem receives the ATH command, it ignores S38 and immediately hangsup.
