To Change the Remote Escape Character
To further improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape charac-
ter either locally or remotely. The remote configuration escape character is stored in register
S9. The
factory default is 37, which is the ASCII code for the percent character (%). Setting S9 to 0 (zero) dis-
ables remote configuration entirely.
CAUTION: 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 ATS9= n, where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration escape character,
and then press E
NTER
.
3. Save the new value by typing AT&W and pressing E
NTER
.
4. Type ATO and press E
NTER
to exit remote configuration.
