The modem doesn't want auto-answer !!

[netwalker1]

I'm using <b>Windows 2000</b>.. But <font color=red>the modem can't detect the phone call </font>... I put the telephone and the telephone jack in the modem.. When I call the modem , I hear the ringing but the modem can't catch the call, because it can't detect it... <u>I test the Hyper terminal And I found that It can detect it when I send an AT command</u><b> &quot; ATS0=n&quot; </b><br>as n=1 to 255 ( # of waiting ringing ).. But still the Tapi can't detect it.. Does anybody know anything about that ??

under modem setting, I belive under Advanced, and on the connection tab somewhere, should be a section where you can put in your own ATZ type commands.<br> <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

um the software Tapi probally doesnt use your modem to answer, calls check to make sure yer modem manufactuer didnt already make specific software for the intentions you want. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

I think the problem you are having is the TR light or MR light may not be on when you initialize the modem. You may want to look at the &D and &C settings in your modem.<br><br>You can test this by calling your modem and have HyperTerminal up and when you see the ring light blinking send a ATD it should force you modem to pickup.<br><br>Leaf

for my own persona reference(I have a External mode) how would you see the TR/MR lights on an internal?

kb244,<br><br>I am not sure, but at one time I did see some VB code that would display the status lights of the modem. Of course I forgot where I saw the code. <br><br>You may want to look at the MSComm Event codes it will tell the status of the port, if ring is detected etc.<br><br>Good Luck,<br>Leaf
