  • 0 - Disconnect

  • 1 - Establish Direct Connection

  • 3 - Establish Normal Connection

  • 4 - Establish an MNP connection if possible, else disconnect

  • 5 - Establish an MNP connection if possible, else Direct Connection.

  • 1 = 300 bps

  • 5 = 1200 bps

  • 6 = 2400 bps

  • 7 = 1200/75 bps (v.23 mode)

  • 8 = 4800 bps

  • 9 = 9600 bps

  • 10 = 12000 bps

  • 11 = 14400 bps

  • 12 = 7200 bps

0Negotiation Speed (Initial handshake)

Many modems have dozens, even hundreds, of S registers, but only the first dozen or so are fairly standard. They are changed with a command like ATSn=N, and examined with ATSn? (for example, AT S10=70 S1? would tell the modem not to hang up for seven seconds should it not hear the answering modem, and return the number of times the phone last rang.)
