The one trick that I have found is that I have to set the switches to
disable echo and result codes. set switch 3 UP, switch 4 DOWN. The
equivalent command is ATE0Q1. You should then be able to configure
CD/DTR to suit your system. This makes the modem a bit more of a
pain to use, but it will work. Below is a line from my L.sys with
irrelevant information removed showing what it takes to make it dial.
