Motorola V.3600 manual Escape Sequence Pause S12, S13

Status Registers

Escape Sequence Pause — S12

The escape sequence to return to command mode from data mode requires two pauses, one before and one after the escape characters.

The pauses prevent the modem from responding to a character sequence which might contain the escape sequence as part of its normal data transmission.

S12 contains the pause interval in 0.02 second increments. The factory setting is 50, equivalent to 1 second (50 x 0.02 sec). When S12 is 0, timing is not a factor.

The timing between the 3 escape characters must be less than the pause interval or the escape sequence will not be detected. The data rate also affects the timing and must be taken into account when changing the pause interval.

To disable the escape command, set S2 to a value greater than 127 instead of changing S12. Values between 15 and 255 may be used for S12.
