,consecutively, with each one causing a two second pause. You also have the option of changing the length of the pause of the comma, from two seconds to any other value from 0 up to 255 seconds. This is accomplished by accessing S-Register S8, which we explain in Appendix E.

Execution

For example, entering ATDT5551212; would simply tone-dial the number, and do nothing

afterwards except go back into

; Command mode. This can be useful in dialing applications where command

modem data transfer is not desired, such as voice communications.

an Escape code. The default Escape code is three plus

Mode While

signs (+++). You need not hit Return.The Escape code character

Still On-Line

may be changed by accessing S-Register S2 which is explained in Appendix E.

+++There is a safety factor built into the command modem, that requires about one second of silent time before and after the Escape code +++ is entered, to prevent accidental escapes into the Command mode. The command modem will not release the telephone line until it receives an ATH or ATZ command, or it detects loss of carrier.
