Mark,

I installed the new beta.  When I start ECS SR starts it's countdown to
start.  At 15 seconds I get an error dialog:

S_ECS_CT(DDE err #4002:Data tx tmo)

I close this dialog and get another with the title "VR_Set" and gibberish
characters for the message.  SR does start (although I haven't tried to use
it).

Yes (I meant to include SR.EXE).

Yes, you may override the default of 10 seconds via:
	SET ECS_PHN_C_HUNGUP_HS={d}
where {d} is the # of 1/100 seconds.
