Hanging Up

To hang up, click the hang up icon. Hanging up has different effects depending on the selected dialing mode:

  • In Modem mode (or Minitel), the hang up action affects the modem, not the telephone. Here are two different scenarios:
    1. The person you are calling answers: You pick up the phone, but at this moment, the phone is dead because the modem is holding the line. Thus, you must hang up the modem to make it release the line and give it back to the telephone.
    2. There is no answer, or the number is busy: There is no need to pick up the phone. Hang up the modem (from Carnet) to actually hang up and end the call.


If you use a Minitel 10 or 12, which has an integrated mouthpiece, there is no need to hang up if your party answers the call. See A Bit of Telephony for more information.


  • In Network mode, the hang up command will be transmitted to the remote dialer. The dialing mode selected in the remote Carnet will determine the effect of the command.

  • In Audio mode, on the Macintosh's loudspeaker, the hang up command is ignored.


The hang up can be set to automatic, see Dialing Setup.
