WAITFOR "dialtone"

[Meridian1Tech]

Hi,I have here a very simple script :

proc main
commandmode on
pause 2
transmit "atdt *3324748,20750^M"
pause 15
hangup
pwexit
endproc

The script is use to activate "Call Forward" on the phone... when I do this manually with the phone, I dial and I wait for the dial tone return, and then I know that the feature is activate.

The script work fine... but I would like to replace "pause 15" by something like "waitfor dial tone".

There is a way to detect when the dial tone is back ?

Thank you to all of you guys !

There may be an AT command for your modem or its chipset manufacturer that would help with this. Other than that, I don't think there is another way to detect the dial tone since Procomm does not get as much information from TAPI as when it controlled the modem directly in previous versions.

Hello,

normal case for AT-Cmds return OK for good feedback and ERROR or NO CARRIER for erroneous case

if you are in this case you can use :
waitfor "OK" timer

Thank you guys for your time...

Finally, I found that I can put a # at the end of the number: transmit "atdt *3324748,20750#^M" and then the phone system don't wait, the feature is activate right now!
