Philips modem

[Alexandre Meissonnier <ameissonnier@dohle.com>]

Has anybody successfully configured a Philips 28.8 modem? 
The user manual identifies the modem simply as "Philips Fax modem". Faxaddmodem 
used the generic class 2 configuration. In the server logs I always find these lines:

Jun  3 12:05:48 idefix2 FaxGetty[556]: --> [15:ROCKWELL 144DPI]
Jun  3 12:05:48 idefix2 FaxGetty[556]: MODEM PHILIPS ROCKWELL 144DPI/KA1131-00

When sending a fax over this modem, I always get some "MODEM command errors", and hardly any faxes really get through. Can anybody help me? Here's my config.tty1A:



#
# Modem-related stuff: should reflect modem command interface
# and hardware connection/cabling (e.g. flow control).
#
ModemType:		Class2		# use this to supply a hint
ModemRate:		38400
ModemFlowControl:	xonxoff		# XON/XOFF flow control assumed
ModemSetupDTRCmd:	AT&D2		# setup so DTR drop resets modem
ModemSetupDCDCmd:	AT&C1		# setup so DCD reflects carrier (or not)
#
# We normally append the "@" symbol to the dial string so that
# the modem will wait 5 seconds before attempting to connect
# and return result codes that distinguish between no carrier
# and no answer.  This makes it possible to avoid problems with
# repeatedly dialing a number that doesn't have a fax machine
# (kudos to Stuart Lynne for this trick.)
#
# NB: If you need to prefix phone numbers to get through a PBX,
#     put it in the ModemDialCmd; e.g. "DT9%s@".
#
ModemDialCmd:		ATX3DT%s@		# T for tone dialing, 
						# @ for silence
						# X3: Don't wait for dialtone
#
# Other possible configuration stuff.  The default strings are
# shown below.  Only those that are different from the defaults
# need to be included in the configuration file.
#

#### According to the manual, there is no AT&K_ command. So I try to use AT\Q_ instead.
