AT Command Set and Register Summary for Cisco MICA Six-Port Modules
April 6, 2002
This document describes modem AT commands and S registers for Cisco MICA six-port modules.
AT commands are modem commands that are prefixed with the characters AT. Cisco MICA stands for modem ISDN channel aggregation, the Cisco high-density modem technology.
For information about managing modems on Cisco access servers using Cisco IOS commands, refer to the software configuration guide for the access server in which the modems are installed.
Note
The defaults and limits on parameters described in this document are valid for the United States. They may not be appropriate for use in other countries.
If you have questions or need help, refer to the section "Obtaining Documentation" on page 61 .
This document contains the following sections:
•
Entering AT Commands
To send AT commands to the modem, you must first put the modem in AT command mode. Entering AT command mode involves a reverse Telnet procedure. The table below shows how to enter AT command mode from Cisco IOS EXEC mode using reverse Telnet.
Note
Use these guidelines when you send AT commands to a modem:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
^C.•
•
•
•
–
–
–
The escape code can be enabled and disabled; for instructions, see "S2 (Escape Code Character)," on page 25, and "S47 (Hayes +++ Escape Detection)" on page 46 .
Alphabetic Command Set
This section describes modem commands that begin with an alphabetic character (A to Z).
A/ (Repeat Last Command)
Re-executes the last command one time. If there is no previous command, the modem displays OK. Do not enter the AT prefix before A/. Usually, you need not enter Return after A/.
Note
A (Answer)
Forces the modem off-hook in answer mode, regardless of the value of register S11. The modem must be in the command state when you use the Answer command. If the modem is not in the command state, it responds to this command with a result code of ERROR.
AT (Attention)
Informs the modem that commands are being sent to it. The modem displays OK. AT must precede all other commands except A/ and +++.
D {dial string} (Dial)
Dials a telephone number, establishing a connection. Always make the Dial command the last (or the only) command on the command line. The dial string can contain up to 49 characters; valid characters are the digits 0 to 9, and for tone dialing, the letters A, B, C, and D, and the characters # and *. If your access server is running Cisco IOS Release 12.1(4)T or greater, you can also use these dial modifiers in your dial string: the letters W (wait for dial tone) and X (switch to DTMF signaling) and the comma character, (delay by the number of seconds specified in register S8). If you are running a release earlier than 12.1(4)T, the W, X, and comma modifiers are accepted but ignored.
The modem ignores invalid characters. If you enter dial strings longer than 49 characters, the result code ERROR appears. The following example shows the command used to dial the telephone number 1 (617) 555-1234:
D 1 (617) 555-1234The modem ignores the spaces, parentheses, and hyphen in the example's dial string: they are not dialed and they do not count against the 49-character limit.
To cancel the Dial command, press any key, or clear the call from the router or access server.
The modem must be in the command state when you use the Dial command. If the modem is in the escape state, it responds to this command with a result code of ERROR.
For compatibility, the modem accepts these dial modifiers but does not act on them:
•
•
•
•
•
DEBUGTHISMODEM (Debug This Modem)
Enables debugging features, which include the following:
DI {dial string} (ISDN Dial)
Places an ISDN call, establishing a connection. In order to use the DI command, you must set register S29 to a compatible call type. The call type for ISDN is V.110 (S29 = 8). See "S29 (Modulation Standard)," on page 36.
The ISDN Dial command must be the last command on the command line. The dial string can contain up to 49 characters; valid characters are the digits 0 to 9, and for tone dialing, the letters A, B, C, and D and # and *. If your access server is running Cisco IOS Release 12.1(4)T or greater, you can also use these dial modifiers in your dial string: the letters W (wait for dial tone) and X (switch to DTMF signaling) and the comma character, (delay by the number of seconds specified in register S8). If you are running a release earlier than 12.1(4)T, the W, X, and comma modifiers are accepted but ignored.
The modem (and/or the host) ignores invalid characters. If you enter a dial string longer than 49 characters, the modem returns the result code ERROR. The following example shows the command used to dial the telephone number 1 (617) 555-1234
DI 1 (617) 555-1234The modem ignores the spaces, parentheses, and hyphen in the example's dial string: they are not dialed and they do not count against the 49-character limit.
To cancel the ISDN Dial command, press any key, or clear the call from the router or access server.
The modem must be in the command state when you use the ISDN Dial command. If the modem is in the escape state, it responds to this command with a result code of ERROR.
For compatibility, the modem accepts these dial modifiers but does not act on them:
•
•
•
•
•

This section describes modem commands that begin with an ampersand (&) character.
&Cn (Serial Port DCD Control)
This command is provided for compatibility; it has no effect. (The modem responds OK but takes no action.) Note, however, that n must be 0 or 1. The modem range-checks the value of n, so if you enter something other than 0 or 1, the modem returns an error.
Note
&Dn (DTR Control)
Specifies the modem action when the host's (DTE's) data terminal ready (DTR) transitions off (as when the user's session ends). DTR processing is virtualized on Cisco MICA modems because there is no physical EIA interface. Table 7 lists DTR control command options.
Note
Default
&D3
Table 7 DTR Control Command Options
&F (Restore Factory Defaults)
Hangs up the telephone line, clears the modem, and restores the factory default configuration, with several exceptions—the following values are preserved:
•
•
•
This command can also be entered as &F0.
&Tn (Diagnostic Test Mode)
Tests the modem hardware. The following table lists modem test options.
Default
&T5
Table 8 Modem Test Options
+F Command Set
Fax Class 2 and Class 2.0 modem commands begin with the characters +F. Fax commands are not used by humans; they are accessed by software only.
The following table lists the Fax commands supported by Cisco Portware. For more information on Class 2 commands, see the Electronic Industries Association publication Standards Proposal No. 2388, August 20, 1990, Asynchronous Facsimile DCE Control Standard. For more information on Class 2.0 commands, see the Electronic Industries Association publication EIA/TIA-592, Asynchronous Facsimile DCE Control Standard.
Table 9 Fax (+F) Commands Supported by Portware
In addition to the commands listed above, these Class 2 commands are defined in TIA/EIA SP-2388 and are supported in Cisco MICA Portware: ATA, ATDnumber, ATE0, ATS0=n, and ATV1.
The Class 2.0 command ATDnumber is defined in TIA/EIA-592 and is supported in Cisco MICA Portware.
Backslash Command Set
This section describes modem commands that begin with a backslash (\) character.
\B (Transmit a Break)
Sends a break (in async mode, a 300-millisecond break) that is nondestructive (does not cause data to be lost) and expedited (does not wait behind data that was entered before it). The break can be transmitted in LAP-M mode, MNP mode, and async mode.
For compatibility, Cisco MICA modems accept a numeric argument immediately following the \B command, but the argument is ignored.
Default
\B
\D{command} {modem} (DSP Debug Options)
Sends the specified debug command to another modem on the same module as this modem. Replace command with a number from 0 to 4:
Replace modem with the number identifying the modem to which you want to issue the command. For example, enter AT\D2 1 to send a retrain command to modem number 1. If you omit the modem argument, Cisco MICA sends the command to the current modem.
In order to use this protected command, you must first execute the DEBUGTHISMODEM command.
Default
\D0
\Qn (Flow Control)
In fax mode, enables and disables flow control for the modem. The following table lists flow control command options.
Note
Default
\Q0
Table 10 Flow Control Command Options (Fax Mode Only)

The modem saves configuration settings in S registers that are similar to Hayes Smartmodem 2400 registers. Each register controls a single modem function or is bit-mapped to control several functions. (For information on how to use bit-mapped registers, see "Bit-Mapped Registers" on page 24 .)
S Register Commands
This section describes AT commands that display or change register values.
Read All Registers
The %R command displays the contents of all S registers. The register contents are displayed as a table in decimal and hexadecimal format.
Read a Configuration Register
The Sn? command displays the contents of register n in decimal format. Register n becomes the reference register.
Point to a New Reference Register
The Sn command sets the modem register pointer to register n. Register n then becomes the reference register for subsequent register commands.
Change the Value of a Register
The Sn=x command changes the value of register n to x, where x is a decimal value. The Sn=>y command changes the value of register n to y, where y is a hexadecimal value. In either case, register n becomes the reference register.
Display the Value of the Reference Register
The ? command displays the value of the last S register referenced in a read, change, or point command.
Change the Value of the Reference Register
The =x command changes the value of the last S register referenced to x, where x is a decimal number. The =>y command changes the value of the last S register referenced to y, where y is a hexadecimal number.
Bit-Mapped Registers
Some S registers are bit-mapped so that they control several functions. (For example, see the sections on S9 and S46.) For each bit-mapped register, the section "S Register Descriptions" includes a table like the one below that lists register values and describes the feature associated with each value. To turn on a single feature, set the register to the appropriate value. To turn on two or more features, add their values and set the register to the total.
For example, suppose you want to set the register described in to disable quick retrains (value = 0), no result codes in answer mode (value = 4), and disable 8S-2D trellis encoding (value = 8). Total the values: 0 + 4 + 8 = 12, and set the register to 12. (This sample register is used for purposes of illustration and does not correspond to any actual Cisco MICA register.)

S Register Descriptions
This section describes the purpose and format of each S register.
Note
S0 (Automatic Answer in Seconds)
Specifies the interval in seconds between the time the modem receives notification of an incoming call and the time the modem answers the call.
Range
0 (Answer immediately)
1 to 255 (Wait 1 to 255 seconds before answering)Default
2 (Answer in two seconds)
S1 (Unused)
Register S1 is not used.
S2 (Escape Code Character)
Specifies the ASCII value of the character used in the escape code. (The escape code is the escape character entered three times in succession.) When the modem is in connect state and it receives the escape code, the modem enters command state. Setting register S2 to 128 or above disables the escape code character.
Note
Range
0 to 255 (ASCII decimal)
128 or higher disables the escape featureDefault
43 (+)
S3 (Carriage Return Character)
Specifies the ASCII value of the carriage return (CR) character. The carriage return terminates command lines and result codes.
Range
0 to 127 (ASCII decimal)
Default
13 (carriage return)
S4 (Line Feed Character)
Specifies the ASCII value for the line feed (LF) character. The line feed character follows a carriage return at the end of long-form result codes. Short-form result codes are sent without line feeds. (See "Vn (Result Code Format)" on page 10 for descriptions of long-form and short-form result codes.)
Range
0 to 127 (ASCII decimal)
Default
10 (Line feed)
S5 (Backspace Character)
Specifies the ASCII value for the backspace (BS) character that you can use to edit the command line.
Range
0 to 127 (ASCII decimal)
Default
8 (Backspace)
S6 (Wait Before Dialing)
Specifies the time the modem waits after going off-hook before it dials. This is a minimum of 2 seconds, even if register S6 is set to a value less than 2. Register S6 is used only when the X0, X1, or X3 command (Extended Result Codes) is set.
Range
2 to 225 seconds
Default
2 seconds
S7 (Wait for Circuit to Establish)
For originate mode, the maximum amount of time to await for the circuit to establish (for example. for PSTN call setup signaling to complete).
Note
The S7 timer starts when Cisco IOS software tells Cisco MICA portware to initiate the origin of a call (the timer does not operate when Cisco MICA is answering a call). The timer stops when Cisco IOS either hangs up the call, or tells Cisco MICA to InitiateLink, which indicates that the PSTN has connected the call.
If the S7 timer times out, some aspect of dialing, signaling, or call progress did not finish in the configured time (for example there might have been no dialtone, or the called party failed to answer). On timeout, Cisco MICA reports an 0x7F02 call failure:NO ANSWER.
The S7 timer does not run when Cisco MICA is actually dialing digits, but it restarts (with full S7 value) after each dial string has been signaled. The timer also restarts (full value) on an X or W dial modifier.
Note
Range
0 to 255 seconds
Default
60 seconds
S8 (Pause Time for Comma Dial Modifier)
Specifies the time the modem waits when the pause dial modifier (,) is used in a dial string.
Note
Range
0 to 255 seconds
Default
2
S9 (Modem Settings)
The modem uses S9 to store the values that you set with the E, Q, V, &D, and X commands.
Note
S9 is a bit-mapped register. See "Bit-Mapped Registers" on page 24 for information on how to set bit-mapped registers. defines the bits in S9, with the default values shown in bold.

1 Default values are in bold type.
Range
0 to 317
Default
317
S10 (Delay for Hang-up After Carrier Loss)
Specifies the time the modem waits before hanging up after loss of carrier. This waiting period allows the modem to recover from a temporary loss of carrier without breaking the connection. Modems at both ends of the connection should have the same values set. If the S10 values of the two modems are unequal, disconnection occurs when the lower value is reached. When register S10 is set to 255, the modem functions as if carrier were always present; it never hangs up due to loss of carrier. After disconnecting in originate mode, the modem waits a minimum of 5 seconds before going off-hook.
Register S10 is linked to register S38 so that the two registers share a single value. Changing the value of S10 changes the value of S38, and changing S38 changes S10.
Range
0 (Do not disconnect after carrier loss)
1 to 255 (Time to disconnect in 0.1-second increments)Default
14 (1.4 seconds)
S11 (Link Initiate Action)
If the modem is idle (in escape or command state) and receives the ATO (on line) command, it originates or answers a call, based on the contents of this register.
Range
0 (Answer)
1 (Originate)Default
0 (Answer)
S12 (Number of Async Data Bits)
Specifies the number of asynchronous (start-stop mode) data bits for the call. Outgoing characters have this many significant bits. This number of bits is assembled for each incoming character.
Set this register to 7 if you wish to use the error correction (EC) parity feature. The EC parity feature is active only when all of the following are true:
•
•
•
If EC has not been negotiated, or if bit 6 in register S54 is set to 0, the modem always uses 8-bit data, regardless of how this register is set.
Range
7 or 8
Default
8
S13 (Parity Configuration)
Specifies the character parity for the call in start-stop (asynchronous) mode. The modem sets this value on outgoing (to line) characters and checks it on incoming characters.
Note
Range
0 (No parity)
1 (Even parity)
2 (Odd parity)
3 (Mark parity)
4 (Space parity)Default
0 (No parity)
S14 (Stop Bit Configuration)
Specifies the number of stop bits for the call in start-stop (asynchronous) mode. The modem sets this value on outgoing (to line) characters.
Note
Range
1 or 2
Default
1
S15 (V.42 Detect Phase Operation)
Enables or disables V.42 detect phase, during which two modems prepare to negotiate a common error correction protocol. This register controls the originating modem's behavior only; in answering mode, detect phase is automatic. The length of the negotiation period is controlled by S16.
Note
-If LAP-M error correction is disabled by setting S23 to 0. See "S23 (V.42 LAP-M Error Correction)" on page 33 .
-If the modulation standard in effect uses FSK (frequency shift keying). FSK modulations include V.21, V.23, and Bell103. For information on setting the modulation standard, see "S29 (Modulation Standard)," on page 36.Range
0 (Disable V.42 detect phase)
1 (Enable V.42 detect phase)Default
1 (Enable V.42 detect phase)
S16 (Error Correction Autodetect Timeout)
Specifies, in 100-millisecond steps, the period for which the modem can remain in V.42 detect phase. This timeout period is used only if V.42 detect phase is enabled; see the preceding section," S15 (V.42 Detect Phase Operation)." See "S25 (Link Protocol Fallback)" on page 34 for a description of the fallback action invoked by the modem if the detect phase times out.
Range
0 (Run detect mechanism until manual intervention occurs or a pattern match is found)
1 to 8589 (Run detect mechanism for 0.1 to 858.9 seconds.)Values larger than 8589 will be accepted but will yield unpredictable results.
The value of S16 must be smaller than the value of S17. See " S17 (Error Correction Negotiation Timeout)."
Default
50 (5 seconds)
S17 (Error Correction Negotiation Timeout)
Specifies, in 100-millisecond steps, the period during which the modem tries to detect and negotiate an error correction protocol. The clock for this timeout starts at the same time as the clock for the error correction autodetect timeout controlled by register S16. The time allowed for error correction negotiation is the difference between the values of S16 and S17. For example, suppose that S16 is set to 50 (5 seconds) and S17 is set to 100 (10 seconds). If the modems spend the full 5 seconds in autodetect phase, only 5 seconds remain for error correction negotiation.
Unsuccessful negotiation results in fallback at the end of the specified time period. The fallback action is set using S25; see "S25 (Link Protocol Fallback)" on page 34 .
Range
0 (Wait indefinitely for protocol negotiation or manual intervention)
1 to 8589 (Wait 0.1 to 858.9 seconds before unsuccessful negotiation causes fallback)Values larger than 8589 will be accepted but will yield unpredictable results.
The value of S17 must be larger than the value of S16. See " S16 (Error Correction Autodetect Timeout)."
Default
100 (10 seconds)
S18 (Error Correction Fallback Character)
Specifies the ASCII value of the error correction (EC) fallback character. The partner modem can send this character three times during EC protocol detect phase (during call establishment) to force this modem to stop negotiating and use the fallback option specified in S25. See "S15 (V.42 Detect Phase Operation)" on page 30 and "S25 (Link Protocol Fallback)" on page 34 .
If you set bit 7 to 128, the fallback character needs to be entered only one time. (That is, you can enter the fallback character once during protocol detect phase, instead of three times, to force the modem to stop negotiating and use the fallback option specified in S25.) This parameter is only 8 bits wide.
S18 is a bit-mapped register. See "Bit-Mapped Registers" on page 24 for information on how to set bit-mapped registers. defines the bits in S18, with the defaults shown in bold.

S19 (Error Correction Retransmission Limit)
Specifies the number of successive data frame transmissions that take place before the modem performs a special recovery action and repeats the specified number of retransmissions. If the retransmissions fail, the modem disconnects.
The special recovery action might include shifting the bit rate or retraining.
Note
Range
0 (Do not disconnect on excessive retransmission; do not perform special recovery action before retries)
1 to 65535 (This number of successive frame retransmissions causes recovery, then disconnect)Default
12 retransmissions
S20 (Error Correction Max Frame Length)
Specifies the maximum length for error correction frames (that is, for MNP, LAP-M, and ARA frames). Higher values are more efficient; lower values work better on a line with poor transmission quality.
Range
64 to 1024 octets of data
Default
256 octets
S21 (Data Compression)
Specifies the methods of permitted data compression. Unless both modems permit a particular data compression method, this register is not used.
S21 is a bit-mapped register.
Note
Range
0 = Disabled
1 = V.42bis
2 = MNP5
3 = V.42bis or MNP5 (V.42bis has precedence)
4 = V.44 Tx
8 = V.44 Rx
15 = All compression types enabled
Note
Default
15 for Cisco MICA portware version 2.9.x.x and NextPort version 7.xx and above
3 for Cisco MICA portware version 2.7.x.x and NextPort version 6.xx and belowS22 (ARA Error Correction Options)
Specifies the AppleTalk Remote Access error correction method.
If more than one method of error correction is enabled at each end of the connection, the modem chooses a method based on the following order of precedence:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Range
0 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 disabled)
1 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 enabled for answer only)
2 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 enabled for answer, ARA1.0 enabled for call origination)
3 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 enabled for answer, ARA2.0 enabled for call origination)
Note
Default
0 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 disabled for Cisco MICA Portware Version 2.5.1.0 and above.)
1 (ARA1.0 and ARA2.0 enabled for answer only for Cisco MICA Portware 2.3.1.0 and below.)S23 (V.42 LAP-M Error Correction)
Enables or disables V.42 (LAP-M) error correction.
If more than one method of error correction is enabled at each end of the connection, the modem chooses a method based on the following order of precedence:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Note
Range
0 (V.42 (LAP-M) disabled)
1 (V.42 (LAP-M) originate and answer enabled)Default
1 (V.42 (LAP-M) originate and answer enabled)
S24 (MNP Error Correction)
Enables or disables MNP error correction.
If more than one method of error correction is enabled at each end of the connection, the modem chooses a method based on the following order of precedence:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Range
0 (MNP disabled)
1 (MNP originate and answer enabled)Default
1 (MNP originate and answer enabled)
S25 (Link Protocol Fallback)
If either V.42 detect phase or error correction negotiation phase (see S15, S16, and S17) ends in failure to agree on an error correction protocol, the modem takes the fallback action specified in this register. The partner modem can also force this modem to fall back using the character specified in S18. In asynchronous framing mode (S25 = 0), the modem uses the settings of S12, S13, and S14. For more information on V.42 detect phase, see "S15 (V.42 Detect Phase Operation)" on page 30 , "S16 (Error Correction Autodetect Timeout)" on page 30 , "S17 (Error Correction Negotiation Timeout)" on page 30 , and "S18 (Error Correction Fallback Character)" on page 31 .
Range
0 (Enter asynchronous framing mode (start/stop/parity bits))
1 (Enter synchronous framing mode (raw 8 bits to line))
2 (Disconnect)Default
0 (Enter asynchronous framing mode (start/stop/parity bits))
S26 (DSP Processor MVIP TDM Slice)
Indicates the time-division multiplexing (TDM) pair assigned to the digital signal processor (DSP) on the modem card. There are three DSPs per modem card, and each processor is assigned one TDM pair.
Note
Range
0 to 15
Default
0
S27 (Calling Tone)
Enables or disables the V.25 optional calling tone, a 1300-Hz signal that allows the called party to determine whether the calling device is a modem. Some phone systems outside the United States and Canada require a modem to send a calling tone when it originates a connection.
Range
0 (Calling tone disabled)
1 (Send calling tone)Default
0 (Calling tone disabled)
S28 (Guard Tone)
Enables or disables the 1800-Hz guard tone in V.22 and V.22bis modes. Some phone systems outside the United States and Canada require a modem to send a guard tone.
Range
0 (Guard tone disabled)
1 (Use guard tone (V.22 and V.22bis only))Default
0 (Guard tone disabled)
S29 (Modulation Standard)
Specifies the modulation standards to be used. When negotiating a connection with another modem, the modem attempts to set up a connection based on a standard acceptable to both, based on the sequence and timing of generated and detected tones. For example, when S29 is set to 0, the modem opens negotiations by generating ANSAM, a single tone that is a valid starting point for many standards, including K56FLEX, V.90, V.34+, V.34, V.32bis, V.32, V.22bis, V.22, and V.21. If there is no response, the modem generates a sequence specific to V.32bis. Then the modem tries V.22/V.22bis, then V.32 again, then V.21, and so on.
If both modems are Cisco MICA, they will at a minimum be able to agree on one of the standards in setting 4. If one modem is not Cisco MICA, the modems may fail to negotiate a standard and disconnect.
Note
Digital and Analog Modulations
K56Flex and V.90 (used in settings 5 and 6 of this register) use digital pulse code modulation (PCM); the other types of modulation (V.34, V.22, etc.) are analog.
Effect of FSK on Framing
Certain modulations, including V.21, V.23, and Bell103, use frequency shift keying (FSK). FSK causes MNP connections to use MNP2 (character mode framing), rather than the standard MNP3 (sync framing). FSK also causes LAP-M/V.42 and V.42 detect phase to be disabled.

S30 (Maximum Connect Rate)
Maximum rate at which the modem will receive data, in bits per second. If this modem's range of connect rates does not overlap with the other modem's range (that is, if one modem's maximum connect rate is lower than the other modem's minimum connect rate (see S31)), a connection cannot be established and the modems disconnect.
Note

Range
75 to 33600 bps
This value must be equal to or greater than the value of S31 and must be equal to or greater than its corresponding minimum connect rate.Default
33600 bps
S31 (Minimum Connect Rate)
Minimum rate at which the modem will receive data, in bits per second. If this modem's range of connect rates does not overlap with the other modem's range (that is, if one modem's maximum connect rate (see S30) is lower than the other modem's minimum connect rate), a connection cannot be established and the modems disconnect.
Note
Range
75 to 33600 bps
This value must be equal to or less than the value of S30 and must be equal to or less than its corresponding maximum connect rate.Default
300 bps
S32 (Signal Quality Threshold)
Specifies the minimum bit error rate at which the modem initiates recovery, and below which the modem considers the line to be good. Recovery consists of a retrain or of falling back to a lower data rate, depending on the modulation standard currently in use. If the line quality consistently exceeds the threshold, the modem falls forward to a higher data rate (see the "S34 (Fall-forward Timer)" section).
This register works in conjunction with bit 7 of S54 to control the signal quality threshold and receive speed. Table 14 The following table shows the relationship between the S register settings, the effective signal quality threshold, the trigger bit error rate (BER), and, for a given bandwidth/signal-to-noise ratio, the receive speed.

S36 (Terminate Timeout)
Specifies, in seconds, the maximum time to delay after a host disconnect request before forcing the link to disconnect. (The disconnect request can be an ATH (hang up) command or a Cisco IOS request from the router or access server.) During this period, the modem sends buffered data and then clears the link. Low values cause the modem to disconnect faster, but may result in some final data being lost and in the remote modem hanging on to a dead line for a while.
Range
0 to 858 seconds
Default
20 seconds
S37 (Wait for Carrier After Dial)
Maximum time until Layer 1 data mode is established. This timer starts when Cisco IOS software tells Cisco MICA portware to InitiateLink, which is when the PSTN reports that it has physically connected the called party. Cisco MICA starts its trainup phases when Cisco IOS commands InitiateLink. This timing occurs while either originating or answering a call.
The timer stops when Cisco IOS either hangs up the call, or when the Cisco MICA DSP determines that trainup has been successful and enters layer 1 (L1) data mode. Cisco MICA state is seen to progress beyond Trainup (for example, EC_NEGOTIATE, STEADY). If the timer stops, then no error has occurred, and the call is successful so far. If the timer times out, this means that some aspect of trainup did not finish in a reasonable amount of time but somehow was not signaled otherwise as a call failure. On this timeout, Cisco MICA reports an 0x6008 call failure: ConnectTimeout.

S44 (V.34 Preemphasis Filter Selection)
Specifies the filter to use on the transmit signal when the modem is using V.34 modulation. (To select the modulation standard, see "S29 (Modulation Standard)" on page 36 .) The default setting, 11, selects a filter automatically based on line impairments and conditions. Settings 0 to 10 select fixed preemphasis filters without regard for line impairments and conditions. We recommend that you leave this register set to the default value, 11 (automatic selection), unless you are advised otherwise by a Cisco representative. For more information on preemphasis filter selection, see CCITT Recommendation V.34. This register is read-only unless you use the DEBUGTHISMODEM command. See "DEBUGTHISMODEM (Debug This Modem)," on page 4.
Note

S45 (Signaling Type)
Specifies the type of central office transmit and receive signaling the modem uses on T1/R2 trunks.
Setting 6 puts the modem into a mode where it performs SS7/COT signaling. This prevents the modem from operating normally—that is, from operating as a modem. Typically this setting is initiated by the host; it is not recommended for human users.
If you set S29 to 8 for V.110, the modem ignores the value of this register and uses null signaling (0).

S47 (Hayes +++ Escape Detection)
Enables or disables detection of the escape code (+++ by default) that you enter to put the modem into escape mode. Escape mode enables you to enter commands while this modem is connected to another modem.
Note
In addition, if you use register S48 to turn off the AT command processor, executing the escape code will have no effect.If escape code detection is enabled on the modem for a host that echoes the user's input, the host modem may inadvertently be placed in online command mode when a user enters the escape code on his or her own modem. For this reason, we recommend disabling escape code detection (setting S47 to 0) on host/server modems. However, if the host/server echoes only when answering calls, then S47 = 2 is a good setting.
Range
0 (Disabled)
1 (Enabled)

S50 (Maximum PCM Connect Rate)
Maximum rate, in bits per second, at which the modem will transmit data when it is using the K56Flex or V.90 modulation standards. (Use S29 to set the modulation standard.) This parameter is unidirectional; it does not affect the speed of data received. If this modem's range of connect rates does not overlap with the other modem's range (that is, if one modem's maximum connect rate is lower than the other modem's minimum connect rate (see S51)), a connection cannot be established and the modems disconnect.
Pulse code modulation (PCM) is digital; the other types of modulation available on Cisco MICA modems (V.34, V.22, etc.) are analog.

S52 (Digital Pad Compensation)
For V.90 transmissions, Cisco MICA can boost the signal it transmits when the partner analog modem detects a digital pad (attenuator) in the circuit. Boosting the signal to compensate for digital pad attenuation can improve throughput. This register controls whether Cisco MICA allows the partner analog modem to compensate on circuits where a digital pad is detected.
This register has no effect on transmissions in modes other than V.90.
Range
0 (No compensation)
1 (This modem supports digital pad compensation for V.90 transmissions)Default
