Changing the Remote Escape Character

To improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character. The remote configuration escape character is stored in register S13. The factory default is 42, which is the ASCII code for the asterisk character (*). Setting S13 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 ATS13=n, where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration escape character, and then press ENTER.

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

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