Setup
Multi-Tech modems are shipped with a default setup password
(MTSMODEM). For security measures,you should change the
password and possibly also the remote configuration escape character.
New password: __________________________________________
New remote configuration escape character: ___________________
Changing the Setup Password
1. Open a data communications program such as HyperTerminal.
2. In the terminal window, type AT#SMTSMODEM (or
AT#Syyyyyy if you have replaced the MTSMODEM password
with yyyyyy) and press ENTER. The modem responds with OK if
the setup password is correct and ERROR if it is wrong.
3. To change the password, type AT#S=yyyyyy, where yyyyyy
stands for the password, and press ENTER. The password can
include any keyboard character and must be one to eight
characters long. The modem responds with OK.
4. The new password is saved automatically. You now can enter
more AT commands or exit the data communications program.
The next time you remotely configure the modem you must use the
new setup password.
Note: You can only change the setup password locally; you cannot do
it remotely. Also, passwords are case sensitive. The next time you
enter the password, it must be in the same case as you set it up.
Changing the Remote Escape Character
To increase security, you can change a remote modems remote
configuration escape character. 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)
disables remote configuration entirelybut if you do this remotely,
you wont be able to change it back remotely!
