[comp.sys.ibm.pc] X-10 telephone responder?

jcb@loral.UUCP (Jay C. Bowden) (03/28/89)

I am curious about how exactly the X-10 telephone responder
works: Does it answer the phone itself?  Or does it listen
to the line if something else answers the phone?  Which is
to say, can you still have an answering machine on the
same line?  And does it use touch tone codes, or its own
special frequencies?

Thanks!

- Jay
