Modem PC card problem

I'm having problems faxing from my OmniGo 700LX using a Psion Dacom v32bis + Fax PC (PCMCIA) card modem:

I'm trying to fax from the built-in Fax app, with the following config:

- Fax transfer rate: 14,400
- Interface: Com 2 (Com 1 is for external modem)
- Modem Init: <blank> (I've tried 'AT&F' and 'ATZ^M')

When I attempt to send a fax, the following happens:

- the modem initialises and dials the (correct) fax no.
- there are a couple of rings
- there is a tone of approx 1 sec
- then the OG says I'm connected to my fax number
... and then nothing happens
- after approx 1 min, the error message 'Fax session communication error' is reported.

If I try to re-send, the same thing occurs.

What's going wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA
