Q
When you are unable to make a call when using
a switchboard
A
In general, the dial tone of a switchboard or a digital
phone switching system is not continuous unlike
that of a PSTN line. Therefore, the modem may not
make a call because it may recognize the dial tone
as a busy signal. In this case, perform either of the
following:
Using AT command
A
dd ATX3 command for initialization.
Alternatively, enter ATX3 command rst before make
a
phone call.
The modem will not check the dial tone before
making a phone call.

If you cannot make a phone call starting with

long distance calls. Ask your switching system
administrator.
