I did advise already, and you don't seem to be following it.  Here's 
what I wrote:

Yes, this is very familiar to me.  It's been a while since I have 
stopped using Patton 2977s... and I don't have their config files around 
any more.  I seem to recall there being an AT command to "repeat" the 
Caller*ID information.  Maybe it was AT+VRID. (?)  You would put that 
command into ModemRingResponse and configure ModemRingsBeforeResponse to 
something like 2.  Also, you'd want to use CallIDAnswerLength for that 
CallIDPattern so that answering is triggered by the Caller*ID 
information.  RingsBeforeAnswer should be set to 0 or to something 
ridiculously high (like 9).

It does seem to be AT#CID=10 and not AT+VRID.  But basically...

RingsBeforeAnswer: 7
ModemRingResponse: AT#CID=10
ModemResetCmds: ""
CallIDPattern: "NDID="
CallIDAnswerLength: 8
CallIDPattern: "NMBR="

Here RingsBeforeAnswer is only set to a non-zero number so that it 
serves as a fall-back if the DID fails to come through.  If you want it 
to not answer if the DID does not come through then you set 
RingsBeforeAnswer to 0.
