IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry.
Before you edit the registry, you should first make a backup copy of the
registry files (System.dat and User.dat). Both are hidden files in the
Windows folder.
SYMPTOMS
When you try to send a fax from a cellular phone using Microsoft Exchange
and a Motorola Power 14.4 PCMCIA modem, your fax may not be sent.
CAUSE
The default initialization string sent to the modem by Microsoft Exchange
initializes the modem for non-cellular calls only, regardless of the status
of the Use Cellular Protocol option in Modems properties.
RESOLUTION
NOTE: For information about how to edit the registry, view the Changing
Keys And Values online Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). Note
that you should make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and
User.dat) before you edit the registry.
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that
may require you to reinstall Windows 95. Microsoft cannot guarantee that
problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved.
Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
The following registry key contains the initialization strings for
installed modems, where <xxxx> is the modem ID number. To determine which
ID is the correct modem, see the DriverDesc key.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Modem\
<xxxx>\Init
Use the following value to use the modem with a cellular phone:
"2"="AT&F1&D2&C1\\V1S0=0E0V1<cr>"
To return the initialization string to normal (land use), change the key
to:
"2"="AT&F&D2&C1\\V1S0=0E0V1<cr>"
NOTE: You can reset these values to their default values by removing the
modem in Device Manager and then reinstalling it.
