ATS38 Disconnect Delay
S Register 38 determines the number of seconds the modem will wait before hanging up after the
ATH command is issued or the DTR signal is lowered — after the &D2 command has been
issued. If a disconnect delay has been defined, the modem will attempt to empty the contents of
its data buffers before actually going on-hook.
If the modem empties its buffers before the defined disconnect delay expires, the modem will
hang up immediately.
The modem will respond with NO CARRIER, rather than OK, if S Register 38 is between 1 and
255 and the modem’s buffers have not been emptied when it hangs up.
The length of the disconnect delay may be selected with the %D command.
Examples
ATS38=30 Wait 30 seconds before hanging up.
