Small Office Modem 1

Not to my knowledge, its either on (answers all calls) or off (answers none).
The only tweak that I've heard about is that strange short code [ *9000* / "MAINTENANCE" / RelayOn ] that appears on some defaulted configurations. What I've been told that it does is switches the first analog port modem from off to on.
I assume that the idea is that you can ask someone on the system to dial it and then you can dial in a remote access call on that port, do whatever you need to do and then get them to dial *9000* to switch it off again. I also don't know if its just Small Office or the first analog port of any system (- one day I'll drag the modem back out of the cupboard but currently broadband suits me just fine).

In terms of a transfer, assuming the analog modem is going to actually work (a significant assumption although I haven't tried it on any of the more recent firmwares) you would have to connect an analog station port to analog trunk 1, and live with only 3 analog PSTN's. If that is OK, then just transfer a call to the analog extension which is looped to trunk 1 which is configured to answer with the modem.

The modem on the SOE used to work however we have found it is broken in 2.1(24) and is still broken in 2.1(27).
So stay with 2.1(15) or 2.0(18) if you need the modem to work.
PS This has no effect on the ISDN remote access

Morack - Cunning, though as you say at the loss of one alog trunk (and remebering its SOE so no expansion modules) one alog extension plus the trunk on which the modem call arrived.
At this point we have to ask what are we trying to achieve - it might be simpler, cheaper and more flexible to by a cheap modem (£15) a splitter cable.

sizbut,
I tried it on a SOE and the code *9000* seems to turn the modem on ! The only way to turn it off again seems to reboot the SOE unless someone knows a code for this ?
Using VMPro you can turn the modem on remotely by doing an unsupervised transfer to *9000*.
Great trick! If the modem would work under 2.1(27) of course
