S6 Wait Before Dialing
This register sets the length of time, in seconds, that the modem must wait
(pause) after going off-hook before dialing the first digit of the telephone
number. The modem always pauses for a minimum of two seconds, even if the
value of S6 is less that two seconds. The wait for dial tone call progress feature
(W dial modifier in the dial string) will override the value in register S6. This
operation, however, may be affected by some ATX options according to
country restrictions.

S7 Connection Completion Time-Out

country restriction. The timer also specifies the wait for silence time for the @
dial modifier in seconds. S7 is not associated with the W dial modifier.
