I'm trying to setup a notification using an Alphanumeric pager

It's from a Tiger (10.4.6) desktop with a built-in 56kb Apple
modem. I get a dial-tone on the line I want to use, but I get
this error in the log:
Modem Page Server Failure: Modem reported line busy. Page not
sent for pager number xxxxxxxxxx (Reply = 12)
I'm sure many have set this up successfully and I'm merely missing
something obvious...
This means that the modem itself is reporting that it received a
busy signal when it dialed. The two chief causes of this are 1)
that the number you've dialed is, in fact, busy (did you dial it on
your phone to see if this was so?), and 1) that you've forgotten to
add whatever prefix your PBX/Centrex/etc. needs to dial out. For
example, I have to add "9," to any phone number I configure for an
alphanumeric pager.

Thanks for the quick reply Christopher.
I did think of that so I did call the number and it wasn't busy. And
I added the '9' as you suggested. Still no go.
I was able to send a text message from my cell phone to the number
(pager) successfully.
