ATS9 Carrier Detect Response Time

S Register 9 contains the length of time, in tenths of a second, the modem will wait before asserting the DCD (Data Carrier Detect) signal, after a carrier has been detected.

The longer the time taken before asserting DCD, the less chance of line noise being mistaken by the modem as a carrier signal.

If you have previously issued an AT&C0 command or placed the DCD option switch in the DOWN position, the modem will assert the DCD signal regardless of the presence of a carrier signal from the remote system.

V.21, Bell 103 and V.23 only.

Examples
