- FidoNet 1:106/400 InterNet: bjg90783@jetson.uh.edu
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- NOTE: THIS SETUP FILE IS ONLY FOR THE *OS/2* VERSION OF MAINDOOR
-
- NOTE: US Robotics owners, please read over the USR section in the READ.ME
- file before proceeding!
-
- Please make sure the following three items are true before proceeding...
- (1) Your modem is NOT set to "Auto Answer" mode (REGISTER S0 MUST EQUAL 0)
- (2) DIP switch #5 is in the "SUPPRESS AUTO ANSWER" position
- (3) You have already put all relevant DATA commands for the BBS into NVRAM
-
- Note that, generally, fax (AT+F) commands CANNOT be stored in NVRAM.
-
- Here is the relevant information from MDSETUP ...
-
- [MDSETUP] Modem -> Strings
- Init string #1 ........... ATZ|~AT+FCLASS=2{.0|
- Init string #2 ........... AT+FNR=1,1,1,1|
- Init string #3 ........... AT+FLI="713 555 1212"|
- Force answer string #1 ... AT+FAA=1;A|
- *** Force answer #2 and #3 should be empty ***
- Dial prefix .............. AT+FCLASS=0DT
-
- : atz automatically recalls data commands in NVRAM
- : +fclass=2.0 enables fax mode--MainDoor escapes "{." to be "."
- : +fnr=1,1,1,1 sets your FAX ID, up to 20 characters
- : +fli="713 555 1212" tells modem to let BGFAX know connect speed
- : +fclass=0dt enables data mode operation on outgoing calls
- :
- : The "at+faa=1;a" causes the modem to answer adaptively, i.e., to auto-
- : matically determine whether the incoming call is fax or data and return
- : the response to the modem.
-
- P.S... USR's FAX/ARQ light WILL flash when waiting for calls!

- You will need to create a file called EXEFAX.CMD. (This file is to be
- placed in the "flag" direction if it is defined in MDSETUP, otherwise
- it must be placed in the main MDOOR directory.)

- your computer, cache size, etc. See BGFAX.DOC for details.
