[hylafax-users] Monitoring modem line status

["Dell'Acqua, Carlo" <carlo.dellacqua@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

we have HylaFAX version 4.3.2 on Linux O.S., installed and configured correctly;

we send faxes from our Java applications using gnu-hylafax-0.0.9.2.jar client library, and with all (hylafax server, modem, line connected) up and running the faxes are transmitted without problems;

in case the modem line connection cable is not connected, when we try to send fax, it fails with status "No carrier detected"; our problem is to avoid to send the fax in this case (line connection cable not connected) but to do this we need to have a way to get the related status (from client library if possible);

 

using the faxstat command we have

 

# faxstat
HylaFAX scheduler on localhost.localdomain: Running
ttyS0 (+39.02.24362037): Running and idle  (*)

which doesn't report the real modem status.

 

To summarize: is there a way to have the current modem line status ?

 

Thanks and Best Regards
