Hi, I discovered some nagging disconnects reported as "disconnect via front
panel" on my Telebit Fastblazer 8840, particularly with transfers using
Kermit and small packets.
It turns out that 3 factors caused this situation:
The "disconnect via front panel" reason can also apply to disconnections via
EIA test leads
EIA test leads are enabled *by factory default*
I was using 25 pin cables
Thanks to Mark Riley of Open Systems for the suggestion of AT*L0 to disable
EIA test lead functionality.
WHY would any manufacturer enable EIA test leads by factory default?
