24.3.15 Modem Status Register (MSR)
The modem status register (MSR) provides information about the current state of the control lines from the
modem, data set, or peripheral device to the Local Host. It also indicates when a control input from the
modem changes state. The modem status register (MSR) is shown in Figure 24-42 and described in
Table 24-24.

Description
Reserved.
This bit is the complement of the DCD input. In loopback mode, it is equivalent to MCR[3].
This bit is the complement of the RI input. In loopback mode, it is equivalent to MCR[2].
This bit is the complement of the DSR input. In loopback mode, it is equivalent to MCR[0].
This bit is the complement of the CTS input. In loopback mode, it is equivalent to MCR[1].
No change.
Indicates that DCD input (or MCR[3] in loopback mode) has changed. Cleared on a read.
No change.
Indicates that RI input (or MCR[2] in loopback mode) changed state from low to high. Cleared on a
read.
No change.
Indicates that DSR input (or MCR[0] in loopback mode) changed state. Cleared on a read.
No change.
Indicates that CTS input (or MCR[1] in loopback mode) changed state. Cleared on a read.
