S89
Off-line Time
Unit: 1 second
Range: 0, 5-255
Default: 10
S89 sets the length of time, in seconds, a modem waits in the off-line command mode before it goes into
standby mode. If S89 is set to 20 seconds, the modem waits 20 seconds in off-line command mode before
going into standby mode. Setting S89 to zero (0) prevents the modem from ever entering standby mode.
Setting S89 to any value between zero and five (1-4) effectively sets the value to five, because five seconds
is the minimum possible wait time.

appear as a three-digit decimal number (e.g., 045 ).
To assign a new value to an S-register, type S, the S-register number, an equals sign (=), and a decimal
number. Convert all ASCII characters to their decimal equivalents before entering them. Valid S-register
decimal values are shown for each register in the previous section. To make the change permanent, use the
&W0 command.
