Configuring the Modem t o Call a Remote Computer
To configure the modem to call a remote computer, perform the following
procedure:
NOTE: Perform this procedure only after completing “Basic Modem Configuration”
section of this chapter.

2. Keyin[A],[T],thenpress[ENTER].
3. Confirm that the modem responds with “OK” or “0” (zero).
NOTE: In steps 4 and 5, the “xxxxxxx” is the phone number of a remote computer.
The phone number should include all local line and long distance access
numbers needed to dial out. This number is limited to 32 characters.
Placing a “T” at the beginning of the number informs the modem to use tone
dialing. For example, use “9” if needed for an outside line, “1” for long
distance + (Area Code) + Number or whatever access codes are needed to
dial the call directly. Add a “,” in the number anywhere that a delay is
needed. This will cause a one-second delay. More than one delay may be
added to the number; for example, enter “AT&Z0=T,9,,1 (Area Code) (Phone
Number)”.
