Selecting Modem Modes If you have trouble connecting to certain modems, you can try forcing the internal modem to certain modulations and connect rates. To select a modulation, use the +MS command. In addition to selecting the modulation, this command allows you to enable or disable automode and specify the lowest and highest connection rate. The format of the command is as follows: +MS= ,,, The +MS command should be used as part of the modem initialization sequence in your communications program. The following table indicates the mode value to use for each supported modulation as well as the possible rates that can be used for each modulation.

Selecting Modem Modes
If you have trouble connecting to certain modems, you can try forcing the internal modem to
certain modulations and connect rates. To select a modulation, use the +MS command. In
addition to selecting the modulation, this command allows you to enable or disable automode and
specify the lowest and highest connection rate. The format of the command is as follows:
+MS= <mode>,<automode>,<min_rate>,<max_rate>
The +MS command should be used as part of the modem initialization sequence in your
communications program.
The following table indicates the mode value to use for each supported modulation as well as the
possible rates that can be used for each modulation.
