I have a KX-TA624 unit, but no other telephones that go with it. I want to use it as a plain ole analog switch so I can perform a demo involving a wardialer. In testing the box, I have plugged an analog line into a modem, and am using that modem to dial another generic analog telephone.

telephone is plugged into Jack09, hyperterminal/modem is in jack18. From hyperterminal I try to dial atdt109
and I get NO CARRIER. I just can't get the
phone to ring (yes, I've tested it elsewhere and the phone is functional). I do hear the switch clicking, and I no longer hear dialtone when I pick up handset, but hyperterminal never knows a pickup occurred, or that the actual session went all the way through.

Hyperterminal is set up to use the proper COM port, 9600 8N1 parity.

Any clues? I can't find anything online to help me, all I find is how to program phones that come with the system (which I don't have).
