=====================================

This should be all that is needed to enable the remote console modem port.

If you are using a terminal emulator on a PC, such as WRQ Reflections, then go

to the connection menu and select 'disconnect'. If the system is booted and

at the CI prompt, do the following:

:pause 10

+++

ath0

This will cause the local modem to drop the connection and leave the local console in the

proper state. The “pause” command is entered so the modem escape string (+++) is not

echoed to the remote modem. If the escape string is echoed back to the remote modem,

then the modem connected to the system also goes ofﬂine and prevents the user from

disconnecting the local modem. If needed, you can reset the modem from the GSP on the

local or LAN console port with the GSP command “MR” for modem reset.
