Setup hints for using BGFAX with the USR 21.6K/FD 2.12 03-24-94
B.J. Guillot
FidoNet 106/400 InterNet: st1r8@jetson.uh.edu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: If you want to use a 09/20/93 model USR modem with BGFAX, you
will need to use the /OU switch on the command line. BGFAX defaults
to use the 12/08/93 firmware.
Keep in mind that fax commands cannot be stored in NVRAM.
Here is the relevant information from FDSETUP ...
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Command Strings
Dial ..... AT
Prefix .. +FCLASS=0DT
Init-1 ... ATZ|
Init-2 ... AT+FCLASS=2.0|
Init-3 ... AT+FLI="713 555 1212"|
+fclass=0dt enables data mode operation on outgoing calls
+fclass=2.0 enables fax mode operation
+fli="713 555 1212" sets your FAX ID, up to 20 characters
+fnr=1,1,1 tells modem to let BGFAX know connect speed
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Answer control
Manual answer Yes
Force answer ... AT+FCLASS=2.0|~AT+FAA=1+FNR=1,1,1;A|
Answer delay ... 2
The "+faa=1" causes the modem to answer adaptively, i.e., to automatically
determine whether the incoming call is fax or data and return the response
to the modem. Why are we duplicating the "+fclass=2.0" command? In case
you were attempting to dial out and experience a "NO DIALTONE" situation,
it will cause the modem to reinitialize fax mode so that the +faa=1 command
will be accepted. The answer delay may need to be modified if you are
using an external Caller ID box.
[FDSETUP] Mailer -> Errorlevels
Fax ... 255
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Messages
Fax ... +FCO
FDRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
@echo off
c:
cd\fd
fd
if errorlevel 255 goto bgfax
if errorlevel 103 maint.bat
if errorlevel 102 toss.bat
if errorlevel 101 local.bat
if errorlevel 100 dobbs.bat
goto end
:fax
rem ---1 is for com1, and z is for zfax format
bgfax /fco c:\bgfax 1 z
rem ---if /fco gives you problems, try using /fcos
fdrun.bat
:end
