Chapter 5 - Remote Configuration
3.To change the password, press ÇÅ or È to select the first character of the password, and then press Æ to go to the next character. Repeat until you have entered the entire password.
4.To cancel the new password, press Æ until the password is erased. To save the new password, press the Enter button. The next time you remotely configure the modem you must use the new password.
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.
