The net result should be: Modem waits for a call. DSR is asserted, thus asserting DTR, thus allowing the modem to answer the incoming call. A call comes in. DSR does not change, DTR is still asserted, CD goes high. The call is finished - CD is lost. The TB will then drop DSR for the amount of time specified in S47 - so, dropping DTR for itself. This should cause an ATZ EEPROM reload. You may need to muck about with S47 to find the right amount of time to drop DSR. Let me know via email (at the address below) if this really works. -- Roe Peterson {attcan,mcgill-vision,telly}!sobeco!roe
