S5 Back Space Character
Default : 8 Decimal (###
h
; {08 HEX})
Range : 0-255
S5 contains the ASCII value of the Back Space character. When a character matching the
Back Space character is received any time during a command entry, the modem performs
the following :
1. The Back Space Character is echoed.
2. A Forward Space {20 HEX} is output to the DTE.
3. Another Back Space Character is output to the DTE.
If the user tries to backspace past the attention code ('AT') the modem will ignore the
backspace characters.
S6 Wait for Dial Tone
Default : 2 Decimal
Range : 2 to 255 Seconds (Stored in NVRAM)
S6 contains the time (in seconds) that the DPX-213 will wait before dialling a phone
number. This delay allows for the delay in dial tone after going off-hook. S6 will be
ignored if ATX3 or ATX4 is enabled. If S6 is set to a value less than 2 seconds the DPX-
213 will ignore the value and wait a minimum of 2 seconds.
S7 Wait for Carrier after Dial
Default : 45 Decimal
Range : 0 to 255 Seconds (Stored in NVRAM)
S7 contains the time (in seconds) that the DPX-213 will wait for carrier after dialling is
completed. In the answer mode S7 is the time that the modem waits for carrier after
sending answer tone.
S8 Dial Pause Time
Default : 2 Decimal
Range : 0 to 255 Seconds (Stored in NVRAM)
S8 contains the time (in seconds) that the DPX-213 will wait when a comma is
encountered in the dial string. This feature is used to insert a pause during dialling to allow
for PABX exchange delays.
