TAPI Modem Errors (pcAnywhere) (All Windows)
Category: Home > Software > pcAnywhere

Each time you add a TAPI modem, it generates a unique TAPI Permanent Line ID which is stored in pcANYWHERE32's connection items. If you no longer have a modem with this unique ID, pcANYWHERE32 displays an error message. This registry key tells pcANYWHERE32 how to handle this situation.

The options are:

0 = Always error if TAPI ID does not match.

1 = Error if TAPI ID does not match and more than one TAPI modem is present. If only one TAPI modem is installed, then use it if the TAPI IDs do not match.

2 = Always use the first TAPI modem if the TAPI ID does not match

Settings:

System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\pcANYWHERE\CurrentVersion\System]
Name: UseFirstTapiModem
Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)

Disclaimer: Modifying the registry can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. We cannot guarantee that problems resulting from modifications to the registry can be solved. Use the information provided at your own risk.
