5 Remote Configuration

Note: You can only change the setup password locally; you cannot do it remotely. Also, passwords are case sensitive. The next time you enter the password, it must be in the same case as you set it up.

Changing the Remote Escape Character

To increase security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character. The remote configuration escape character is stored in register S9. The fac- tory default is 37, which is the ASCII code for the percent character (%). Setting S9 to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely—but 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, then press ENTER.

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

4.Type ATO<CR> to exit remote configuration.

Multi-Tech modems are shipped with a default setup password (MTSMODEM). Be- cause anyone who has an owner’s manual knows the default setup password, for security you should change the password and possibly also the remote configuration escape character.
