Caution
Data calls and fax calls from the PSTN come as voice calls (the telephone line on
EasyGate rings) because an analog network is unable to distinguish a modem/fax
call. Therefore, it is necessary to have a special telephone number for incoming
data and fax calls on the SIM card different from the voice call numbers (Multi-
numbering scheme). The GSM network identifies a call incoming to this number as
a data/fax call and lets the COM serial interface ring.
