making SCO Xenix answer the phone

I have a SCO Xenix v2.2.1 80286 system, with a US Robitics Courier
(?) 2400 (Hayes compatible) modem...

I have a cron script do "enable tty1a" at 1am and "disable tty1a" at
4am, as I want the machine to answer the phone between 1am and 4am
only, but it doesn't pick up the phone when it rings. I've tried
"echo ATS0=1 >> /dev/tty1a" and also "... >> /dev/tty1A" and I've
tried enabling tty1A as well as, and instead of, tty1a, and nothing
seems to get the phone to answer!

What do I do?

Thanks in advance!
