12-20-93                   Wait for Carrier

     The S7 register tells the modem how long to wait, or to 'keep  trying'
to  establish connection (Carrier detect) with the remote device (modem  or
fax). On some modems the default is 30 (seconds) on some 50. I recommend 90
if you are having trouble. ATS7=90     or put S7=90 into your init or  dial
string. Sometimes it isn't the wait time, but protocol negotiation that  is
the trouble. Try AT&Q6 to turn off protocol negotiation.

     The  modem  will keep trying for whatver time you set via S7,  so  you
have to balance it to your preference.
