"IgnoreDCD = FALSE" is the default behavior - which means SEXPOTS watches the DCD signal on the serial line to detect carrier. Since that doesn't work with your modem, you'll need to set "IgnoreDCD = TRUE", but only for that old modem that doesn't support AT&C1.

I'd recommend working with the *newer* modem first, since it's more likely to "just work" with the default behavior of SEXPOTS.
