Dial Modifiers

Modifier	Function	Description
W	Dial Wait	Instructs the modem to stop and wait for a dial tone. If the modem
w		does not detect a dial tone after a specified period, it aborts the
:		call. The factory default for dial wait is country-specific (refer to
		Appendix C for details). In the U. S. A., the default is two seconds.
		You can change this interval using the Dial Wait option.
K	Pause	When any of these modifiers are encountered in a dial string or
k	Delay	command line, the modem pauses. The factory default pause delay
<		is three seconds. This default can be extended with the Pause
		Delay command. The comma modifier can be used as a command
,
		outside the dial string.
P	Pulse	When either of these modifiers are encountered in a dial string, if
p		Dial=Auto (AT*PT—DIALING OPTS menu), the Dial setting is
		not changed from Auto. If set to other than Auto, the pulse/tone
		setting is modified to force pulse dialing.
		If no pulse dial modifier is inserted in the number stream, the
		modem dials according to the pulse/tone setting of the Dial option
		in the front panel DIALING OPT’S menu. These modifiers can
		also be used as commands outside the dial string.
T	Tone	When either of these modifiers are encountered in a dial string, if
t		Dial=Auto (AT*PT—DIALING OPTS menu), the Dial option
		setting is not changed from Auto. If set to other than Auto, the
		pulse/tone setting is modified to force tone dialing.
		If no tone dial modifier is inserted in the number stream, the
		modem dials according to the pulse/tone setting or the Dial option
		in the front panel DIALING OPT’S menu. These modifiers can
		also be used as a command outside of the dial string.
&	Flash	Instructs the modem to flash hook (a control signal used by many
!		PBXs to enable special dial features, such as transferring a call).
;	Return to	Instructs the modem to return to command state after dialing, with-
	command	out breaking the connection. The modem can dial but cannot train,
	state after	and no call progress messages are received. This modifier is used
	dialing	when calling an electronic service that permits the user to transmit
		numbers using tones, once a connection is established.
