AT\K Break Control

The \K command determines how the modem will react when a break sequence is sent from your computer or received from the remote modem. During error corrected connections the modem sending the break determines how the receiving modem will react. During non-error corrected connections, the receiving modem determines how it will react. The default break control setting is \K5.

The following tables show how the modem will react when it receives a break sequence from either the remote modem or your computer.
