Before you dial, you must enable the Vision controller to communicate via modem.
This enables you to use Ladder conditions to dial a modem.

SMS operations can conflict with applications that use the modem for other data communication processes. To prevent conflicts, use the Modem Busy (GSM) MB, and use an MB to indicate when the modem is in use by another data communications process.
