indexed in the number directory, eventually
connecting the caller to the local DTE.
When S46 is set to 2, the modem prompts the caller
for a password. If the password is correct, the modem
hangs up, calls the appropriate number, and again
prompts the original caller for the password. If the
password is verified, the modem connects the caller
to the local DTE.
If S46 is set to 3, the modem prompts the originating
caller for a password. If a valid password is entered,

Update System Password Command
The -U command (Update System Password) allows
you to change the system callback security password,
which must be given when you attempt to change the
value of the S46 register.
This password is also required to change an entry in
the telephone number directory when callback
security is enabled (the S46 register is not equal to
zero).
When you enter the -U command, the modem
requests the old password (PEP is the factory
default), the new password (which can appear in any
combination of uppercase and lowercase), and a
confirmation of the new password.
After you change the password, the modem requests
a new prompt string (up to 20 characters), which
appears at the caller's DTE screen. The default value
of this prompt string is Enter Password: . You can
retain this prompt string by pressing the return key.
