property AnswerOnRing : Byte
Default: 2
The number of times the component should allow the incoming call to ring before answering it.
The AnswerOnRing property determines the number of "RING" responses that the TApxModem detects before answering the incoming call. Once the AutoAnswer method is called, internal TApxDataPackets are initialized to detect the "RING" response from the modem when an incoming call is signaled. When the specified number of "RING" responses are detected, the call is answered.
Caller ID information is transmitted between the first and second rings in most countries. The AnswerOnRing property defaults to 2 to avoid problems with Caller ID information corrupting the connection negotiations.
