GetIntModemInfo

You can use the GetIntModemInfo function to find out information about the internal modem.

unsigned long GetIntModemInfo();

DESCRIPTION

The GetIntModemInfo function returns a 32-bit field containing information that describes the features and state of the internal modem. It can be called whether or not a modem is installed and will return the correct information.

If a bit is set, that feature or state is supported or selected; if the bit is cleared, that feature is not supported or selected. Undefined bits are reserved by Apple for future expansion.

Bit name	Bit number	Description
hasInternalModem	0	An internal modem is installed.
intModemRingDetect	1	The modem has detected a ring on the telephone line.
intModemOffHook	2	The internal modem has taken the telephone line off hook (that is, you can hear the dial tone or modem carrier).
intModemRingWakeEnb	3	The computer will come out of sleep mode if the modem detects a ring on the telephone line and the computer supports this feature (see the canWakeupOnRing bit in PMFeatures).
extModemSelected	4	The external modem is selected (if this bit is set, then the modem port will be connected to port A of the SCC; if the modem port is not shared by the internal modem and the SCC, then this bit can be ignored).
