- Does anybody know how the escape sequence works?
- I have USR 28.8 and its default is +++. I am not sure whether it
- uses 1-sec guard times before and after but let's assume it does.
-
- My questions are:
- 1. What happens if the sequence does happen in real data?
- 2. I noticed that the whole sequence +++ is sent over to the remote
- side anyway. Wouldn't be more logical for the modem to buffer
- the characters before any potential escape sequence is detected
- and sent over to confuse the other end. I set up two PC's, connected
- them with modems through my basic PBX and I verified that this
- escape sequence is sent over and then detected by the local PC.
