ATA Answer
This command enables you to answer an incoming call manually. On receiving an incoming call,
the modem will send a RING message code to your computer. When you see the ring message:
• Type: ATA <E>
Your modem will send an answer tone to the calling (originating) modem and wait to receive a
carrier signal in return.
The B command selects which communication standards your modem will attempt to connect
to.
If a connection cannot be established with the originating modem within the time specified in S
Register 7, your modem will hang up and return a NO CARRIER message before returning to
the local command state.
