The appropriate data or fax software must be run-
ning. Consider setting your data or fax software to
automatically answer incoming calls so you can
receive them while away from your PC.

Data call
or
Fax call
,
depending on the type of incoming call.

Terminate the data call from your data software; fax
calls typically terminate automatically.
Note: Avoid terminating a call by pressing your phone’s key.
This may cause your data or fax application to temporarily lock up
and could cause loss of data.
Manual selection of incoming data/fax calls
Certain service providers require that you preset your
phone to receive the incoming data or fax call, rather
than having the phone automatically detect the call type.
Check with your service provider to see if “pre-arrangement” of
data and/or fax calls is necessary.
Most popular data and fax programs allow you to send
additional initialization commands to the modem when
the program is launched, or when the modem is
instructed to receive a call. You will need to modify your
phone’s modem configuration in the data or fax software
so that it sends the following special initialization string
to the modem:
To preset your phone to receive a data call:
AT+CSP=1
To preset your phone to receive a fax call:
AT+CSP=2
You should only have to make this modification once;
these settings typically are saved as a part of your data or
fax program’s settings. Please refer to the documentation
or online help files for your data or fax application when
modifying your modem’s initialization string.
