[hylafax-users] Re[2]: No automatic faxanswer/No modem ring :-(

[Alex Gleitsy <age85@xxxxx>]

Thank you Lee for your quick answer...
After your hint we tried with another serial modem and everything works!! 

So we tried the Elsa modem again and found out that we have to manually set 
ATS28.7=1 this brings the missing RING (don't forget the save command!). We found old docs which says if you use AT&D2, AT&D3 and DTR=off you manually have to do this, not sure what this means....

Thanks,
Alex
