Re: News/400 Paging Program

Dave:
Be sure the modem is set to use a V25bis autodial std.  Also check the line
description to be sure autodial is set to *yes and dial type is set to
*v25bis.  On the controller description, be sure the initial connection parm
is set to *dial and the dial initiation parm is set to *Immed.
Hope this helps.
