S2 - Escape Character
S2 holds the decimal value of the ASCII character used as the escape character. The default value
corresponds to an ASCII '+' . A value over 127 disables the escape process, i.e., no escape character will
be recognized.
Range: 0-255
Default: 43 (+)
S3 - Carriage Return Character
Sets the command line and result code terminator character. Pertains to asynchronous operation only.
Range: 0-127
Default: 13 (Carriage Return)
S4 - Line Feed Character
Sets the character recognized as a line feed. Pertains to asynchronous operation only. The Line Feed
control character is output after the Carriage Return controls character if verbose result codes are used.
Range: 0-127
Default: 10 (Line Feed)
S5 - Backspace Character
Sets the character recognized as a backspace. Pertains to asynchronous operation only. The modem will
not recognize the Backspace character if it is set to a value that is greater than 32 ASCII. This character
can be used to edit a command line. When the echo command is enabled, the modem echoes back to the
local DTE the Backspace character, an ASCII space character and a second Backspace character; this
means a total of three characters are transmitted each time the modem processes the Backspace
character.
Range: 0-32, ASCII decimal
Default: 8 (Backspace)

dial modifier before continuing with the next dial string parameter.
Range: 0-255 seconds

S8 - Pause Time For Dial Delay
1. Sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem will wait before starting to dial after going off-hook
