Commands
+++ Escape Sequence
When the modem is in on-line-state, issuing an escape sequence will force it to return it to on-
line command state, without disconnecting.
Unlike other commands, you should not type AT before the escape sequence, nor type a carriage
return after it. Instead, wait a full second before you type the escape sequence and then a full
second after typing it. As soon as the modem returns to local command state, it will respond
with the message: OK
This waiting period before and after the escape sequence is called the Escape Sequence Guard
Time. This allows the modem to distinguish the escape sequence from the normal flow of
information between modems.
You can change the character used for the escape sequence by changing the value of S Register 2.
You can change the length of the escape sequence guard time by changing the value of S Register
12.
