LF: //* H E L P *// modem, fterm PROBLEM!! _PLEASE_HELP_******
Problem with FTERM and MODEM setup.
Have a:
US Robotics World Port
9696 v.42 bis Fax / Data Modem
Latest ver of FTERM
GREY TI GRAPH LINK
Null Adapter & Gender Changer
I hooked everything up (correctly), and typed "AT" it said "OK"
After trying many different commands, i arrived at the following:
The modem will take ANY COMMAND that starts with AT, and say OK
ex: ATKDFJDIHGH = OK
ATXXXXXXXXX = OK
AT<anything> = OK
BUT THE MODEM WILL N O T DIAL -- I type ATDT####### and NOTHING
I hooked the modem up to my computer, went to PROCOMM, installed it as a
new modem, and it worked fine -- dialed and everything.
I copied the command string it used, and tried that on the calc - nothing
ANY IDEAS?
HERE ARE MINE:
I am thinking it is something with the modem's DTR setting. Since it is
like a compact modem (that CAN use a 9V batt or Plug) it's DTR is funny.
I tried the DTR commands, still didn't help
The instruction book talks about PIN # 20 for signaling the modem for DTR
however this is for the BATTERY mode
There is only 4 lights on the modem
1) High speed
2) Low speed
3) Carrier Detect
4) Low Battery
The carrier detect light is ALWAYS on when the plug is in, but with
the battery, it is not....only when you have CD
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
