- send it the following string (where xxx yyyy is the phone number you want):
-
- ATD xxx yyyy ;
-
- the closing semicolon is essential (the modem wil dial, and respond "OK" ,
- and hold the line open so you can pick up the handset when you're ready).
-
- When the call is over, replace the handset and send the modem the string
-
- ATH (or ATH0 , if your modem prefers)
-
- and the modem vacates the line (hangs up).
