Needed: basic command set for Scholar(tm) modem

I recently purchased a used Scholar modem for use at home, but the manual I
got was for a Scholar Plus, and they don't seem to be compatible.  So two
queries:

1)  What's the basic command structure for the Scholar?  I can get response 
    from the modem but every time I hit any key (like "D" or something that
    seems like it should start a command) I get an immediate response from the
    modem (something like "D --> T") and can't complete the command.  Is there
    an escape or control sequence I need to know to get into command mode, and
    once there, what are the basic commands?

2)  Does anyone have a manual (xeroxed is fine) that they'd be willing to part
    with for a reasonable price, or would be willing to send some basic xeroxed
    pages from?

I'm stuck at 1200 baud until I get this thing working, so any help would be
appreciated...

Thanks,
