To improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character. The
remote configuration escape character is stored in register

S13

. The factory default is 42, which is the

ASCII code for the asterisk character (*). Setting

S13

to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely—

but 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.”

escape character, and then press E
