Re-Dialling the Last Number

To re-dial the last number you called, enter:

Storing a Number

If there are some numbers that you call regularly, you may want to store them so that you do not have to enter the whole number every time you call. You can store up to four numbers (in locations 0-3). Each number can be up to 36 characters long.

To store the number 1-999-555-1212 in storage location 3, enter:

AT&Z3=19995551212 [ENTER]

Dialling a Stored Number

To dial 1-999-555-1212 (that you stored as number 3), enter:

ATDS=3 [ENTER]

Connection Messages

Once you connect to the remote Modem, your Modem will respond with one of the following messages. (If the remote Modem responds with garbled characters or seems to have locked up, refer to Setting Up For a Non-Error Correcting Connection before you try again.)

The Modem may respond with a short form (numeric code) or a long form (prompt). Refer to the ATXn command description in Section Three to control how the Modem responds.
