Using AT commands

A command example is:

AT&Q5DT2125556767

This command line instructs the modem to attempt a V.42 bis connection,
and then dial the number (212) 555-6767.

In this example, the modem’s command line interpreter—the AT command
set—issues instructions to the modem. If you look up these commands in this
appendix, you will find:

AT

The attention command

&Q5

Attempt V.42 bis connection

DT

Use Touch-Tone dial

212… Make this string the dialed number
