HP 3017CL, 3016US, 3015CA S5 Command Line Editing Character user defined, S6 Wait Before Dialing

S-Registers

S5 Command Line Editing Character (user defined)

This register sets the character recognized as a backspace and pertains to asynchronous only. The modem will not recognize the backspace character if it is set to a value that is greater than 32 ASCII. This character can be used to edit a command line. When the echo command is enabled, the modem echoes the backspace character, an ASCII space character, and a second backspace character back to the local DTE. This means a total of three characters are transmitted each time the modem processes the backspace character.

Range: 0-127, ASCII decimal

Default: 8 (backspace)

Units: ASCII

S6 Wait Before Dialing

This register sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem must wait after going off-hook before dialing the first digit of the telephone number. The modem always pauses for a minimum of two seconds, even if the value of S6 is less than two seconds. The wait for dial tone call progress feature (W dial modifier in the dial string) will override the value in Register S6. This operation, however, may be affected by some ATX options according to country restrictions.

Range: 2-65

Default: 2

Units: Seconds
