Programming answering machines or modems to answer calls automatically

The device connected to the Compact ICS using the I-ATA can ring for an external line, or be set up to ring when Ringing Service (Night Service) is turned on. Contact your installer or customer service representative to have these features programmed for your system.

Using the I-ATA with modems and fax machines

The I-ATA is designed to be compatible with commercial fax and and modem equipment. The Compact ICS has been shown to support data transmission rates of up to and including 28.8 kilobits per second (Kbps).

The maximum data transmission rate is subject to the quality of the end-to- end channel and cannot be guaranteed.
