The modem typically turns off DCD when it no longer detects the remote modems carrier signal.
  • Page 41 PCI Modem Card User's Manual &K0 &K3 &K4 &M<value>—Asynchronous Communications Mode This command is supported to ensure compatibility with communication software that issues the &M0 command. The preferred method for changing the asynchronous communication mode is to use the \N<error control mode> command. &M0 &P<value>—Pulse Dial Make-to-Break Ratio Selection This command is effective only for Japan.
  • Page 42: W -Store Current Configuration

    &W<value>—Store Current Configuration Use this command to store the modems command options and all S registers except S3, S4, and S5. The Z<value> command or a powerup reset, of the modem, restores this profiles.
