- RINGER sounds a distinctive warble when the "RING" signal line is set at
- the selected COM port. It is intended for use where there are two phone
- lines with one line connected to a single line telephone and the other
- connected to a modem. RINGER can access COM ports 1 thru 4 and be toggled
- ON/OFF. Only one instance of RINGER can be installed but the COM port can
- be changed. If you want to have RINGER removeable, install FLUSH v6.1 prior
- to installing RINGER.
-
- Syntax: RINGER x
- Where 'x' is a number 1 to 4 representing the desired COM port
- or 'x' is 'D'isable a RINGER which had been installed.
-
- The first time RINGER is run, the selected port is reset to 2400bd and a
- small TSR is installed which monitors that port. A distinctive warble is
- sounded.
- Example for port 1:
- RINGER 1
-
- To disable RINGER so the COM port can be used by the modem use:
- RINGER D
-
- To re-enable RINGER or change the COM port, just run RINGER again.
- Example for port 2:
- RINGER 2
- The selected port is reset and the TSR begins monitoring the port again.
-
-
- Example usage with COM4:
-
- Add these lines to the end of your AUTOEXEC.BAT:
- FLUSH +ringer
- RINGER 4
-
- Batch file to run Telix ( TLX.BAT ):
