People why don't you read the docs! E.g. the FAQ in the main mgetty dir:

[part from FAQ]
vgetty is an extension to mgetty that works with voice-capable
modems to provide additional call-handling capabilities.  When the
modem reports a RING, vgetty has the modem pick up the line and
play a voice message (the greeting).  If the modem detects a data or
fax calling tone, it reports this back to vgetty with special codes
(DLE-sequences) which causes vgetty to switch to either mode. Else
voice mode is used.

If instead the modem hears nothing following the greeting (a
certain level of silence that continues for a certain number of
seconds) it assumes the caller is a data modem and attempts a data
connection.

Bye,
