However, not with a DALLAS Fax 14.4k modem. When in Unattended mode, when a caller calls, ring will report on the status window, but Binkley never answers. After the number of rings in Binkley.CFG has been reached, then it hangs up and goes back to waiting. This was with version 2.50. WIth 2.56Beta, it is the same way. Also, what has happened to BTCTL.EXE in the packages? The Beta version I understand is not complete per the documents. I don't see the BTCTL program. I understand and in the past, have used it to make the necessary files binkley needs, i.e., (MAIL.SYS). Obviously your modem init strings has the command "V1" as Binkley is reporting ring versus a numeric response. What about the S0 register? Is it set to S0=0 to allow the software to answer vs the modem? Yea, I know what you must be going through, I am going the same rough road... N5UYH at The HAM Connection BBS (409)833-1795 24 hours
