Automatic. This setting is used in one of two ways:
with a device, such as an answering machine or a
modem, to answer calls. An Auto Answer+All button
is needed so that calls can be answered automatically.
— to make and receive calls on the telephone while using
a computer or modem that is attached to the GPA. This
is called simultaneous voice and data.
Answering Machines

If the telephone is not built in to the answering machine, connect a 267A2

recognizes a 600-ms disconnect signal.
Answering devices that disconnect automatically, such as voice-reset
disconnect timers and fixed recording timers, are also supported.

cordless telephone cannot dial out through the GPA.
