You are mistaken. It is quite standard. The capability to change the
escape character has been in every modem I've used since my original Hayes
SmartModem (300 baud) *many* years ago. Also, there is nothing dangerous
about it. This is especially so, as you say you only need it for
debugging.
>I certainly cannot do this at all ... but I do appreciate the suggestion.
I assume that you cannot do this because you either do not have or have
not read your modem's manual. I believe that you will find that it is
register S2 that contains the escape character for the modem, which
defaults to 43, the ASCII "+" character. You need to give your modem an
"ATS2=nn" command, where you replace the "nn" with the decimal value of
the character you want to be its new escape. If that's a vertical bar
("|"), then the command would be "ATS2=124" (without the double quote
characters, of course).
After making the change, you may need to save the information into your
modem's non-volatile memory, especially if your debug process requires
that the modem be reset to its saved parameters. Different modems vary in
the way this is done. Most common I've seen is a variant of "AT&W", so you
might look for that in your manual.
Good luck!
