6.4 Answering Calls
The following command is relevant:
A
Answer (Go off-hook).
6.4.1 Auto-Answer
The modem is factory-configured to answer incoming calls automatically
after two rings.
When an incoming call is detected, the modem goes off-hook and sends
answer tone according to the mode set by the communications format
command
F
.
If the command is set for a fixed line format (
F1
to
F5
), the modem only
attempts to connect to the line in that format.
If the command is set for auto-detect format (
F0
), the modem sends V.25
answer tone followed by V.22bis carrier. If the proper response is not
received, the modem tries other formats in turn.
It is possible to alter the number of rings the modem has to detect before
automatically answering the call, by adjusting the contents of the S-
register S0. Setting the S-register to zero disables the auto-answer facility.
6.4.2 Answering by Command
If auto-answer is disabled (S-register S0 = 0), your modem can only answer
an incoming call if it is manually instructed to do so by the
A
command.
