The modem is told to dial a remote modem with the
AT command of AT D.

For example to dial the number of 123456,
the AT command of AT
D 123456.

random event). If it displays a message of
NO DIALTONE, keep trying the AT D 123456 command.
Otherwise you will get a message that says
you are connected, such as CONNECT 9600. You
will then get messages from the other side
