5 In the Modem Ring Time box, type the number of 500 ms intervals that the
BMC should wait before answering an incoming call. A value greater than
zero gives the BIOS time to answer before the BMC takes control. A value
of zero causes the BMC to answer immediately. The maximum value, 63,
tells the BMC to ignore the call. Modem Ring Time applies only to Preboot
access mode and is ignored for other access modes.

connected to the modem on the EMP.
