Some modems, such as the IBM 7857-017, are not designed for the paging function. Although they can be
used for paging, they return an error message when they do not get the expected response from another
modem. Therefore, even though the paging was successful, the error message causes the service
processor to retry, continuing to place pager calls for the number of retries specified in the Call-Out Policy
Setup Menu. These retries result in redundant pages.
