Error: No dial tone on local modem phone line

The modem hang on a key telephone system. In the Windows NT System the modem is correct installed, and the modem won`t wait for a dialtone. This is set in the advanced settings under Windows NT Modem. To get a dialtone, the modem must send an NULL.

From where get the Inside Manager XE the init strings for the modem?

CIM XE gets the modem init strings from the registry. If you setup the modem in WinNT/2K right it should work in CIM XE.

I found the init string in the registry from NT. And I found the registry key for the advanced settings from the modem dialog. In the field extra settings I set the parameter X3 for dialing without an dialtone. But in the Paging Status Log File there is no X3 to see. So the extra settings in the modem configuration will be ignored. To resolve this problem I wrote my special modem configuration in the standard configuration registry key.

Why will the extra settings registry key be ignored?
