Help.

I am trying to get my FreeBSD system to receive calls, but something is not working.  

I have the following in my ttys file.
sio01 "/usr/libexec/getty d2400" vt100 on secure

Before the call comes in the modems SD and RD lights are flickering.

Then the call comes in the CD and OH lights go on but the SD and RD lights go out.

No signon screen or anything.

I then cancel the call the CD and OH lights go out and the SD and RD lights start to flicker again.

Help!
