1-10-94             NO DIALTONE / or w/X0/X1/X3 NO CARRIER

     Generally  if  the software says NO DIALTONE but you hear  a  dialtone
through the speaker, the modem needs fixing. If you do not hear a dialtone,
plug  a phone into the 'phone' jack of the modem to see if the dialtone  is
getting to the modem. If you hear dialtone on the phone, AND it is a 1-LINE
phone  line, the modem needs fixing. If you have a phone with  buttons  for
more than one line, then you have the wrong line for the modem. >>> It MUST
be a 'two-wire' single-phone phone line. <<< The 2 'live' wires must be  on
the inside two wires in the phone plug.

      Often in parts of Europe (& some internal office systems) you need to
use X0, X1 or X3 because the modem does not recognise the Dialtone (so says
NO  DIALTONE).  This goes in the dial prefix ie; ATX3DT   This  allows  the
modem to dial without 'hearing' dialtone. It also will dial if there IS  NO
DIALTONE, because of a wrong adapter or bad connector. Then you will get NO
CARRIER after a pause. Check your adapters and connections.
