- Making terminal software work with the 2400ZI / ZI Plus 05/10/91
-
- In order for software to work with the ZI modems, the software must be
- configured to use the modem0.device. Depending on the software, you will
- use one of 3 methods.
-
- The first method is to use the ModemModify program as explained in the 2400ZI
- manual. This is for older software which has not been updated to support
- Commodore's serial device standard. Use this for the follwing software:
-
- Access! - Shareware software
- DR Term - Progressive Per.
- Diga - Aegis
- SuperBase Pro - Precision
- VT100 - Shareware
-
- The second method is to add a tool type to the program's icon. To do this,
- click once on the program's icon, go to the WORKBENCH pull down and select
- INFO. Click on the ADD in the tool type portion of the screen. Then enter
- the following line:
-
- DEVICE=modem0.device
-
- Then click on the SAVE button. IMPORTANT: Case is very important, also make
- sure that you type a 0 and not a O. You can't run the program from the CLI,
- you must double click on the program's icon. The following use this method:
-
- ATalkIII
- OnLine! Platinum
-
- The third method is to change the serial device setting in the program itself.
- IMPORTANT: Case is very important, also make sure that you type a 0 and not a
- O. The following use this method:
-
- BaudBandit
- JR-Comm
- Whap!
-
- BAUDBANDIT - Click on the MACRO pulldown. Change the device configuration
- from 'serial/0' to 'modem0/0'. Hit the RETURN key. Click on the SAVE
- CONFIGURATION button at the bottom of the screen to save the change.
- NOTE: SHOW MODEM will not work with BAUDBANDIT because of a unknown character
- in the screen name.
-
- JR-Comm - From the OPTIONS pull down, select GENERAL. Change the serial device
- paramter from 'serial' to 'modem0.device'. Hit the RETURN key. From the
- PROJECTS pull down, select WRITE DEFAULTS to save the change.
-
- WHAP! - Click on the EDIT PARAMETERS button. Change the device driver from
- 'serial' to 'modem0.device'. Click on the SAVE button to save the change.
