Using Your Modem

Calling through a Private Branch Exchange (PBX)
In this example, Tone dialing is selected, a 9 is dialed to pass
through the PBX (to get an "outside" line), the modem waits for a
dial tone (due to the W modifier), and then dials the telephone
number 555-1234 .
TYPE:
ATDT9W555-1234
PRESS: Enter
Dialing a Stored Telephone Number
This example shows how to dial a number which has been
stored in the memory of the modem. You can use the &Z
command to store up to four different telephone numbers in
memory. In this case, the modem will dial the number stored in
memory location 2. For more information on &Z, see page 4-17.
TYPE:
ATDS=2
PRESS: Enter
Calling Long Distance
This is another example of using Tone dialing, this time to place
a long distance call. The spaces, parentheses, and dashes are
used to make the number easier to read, but are ignored by the
modem.
TYPE:
ATDT 1 (813) 555-1234
PRESS: Enter
