-
- This new Hayes V-Series ULTRA Smartmodem 9600 modem driver can now handle
- sending messages to the receiving MHS host using a 2400 baud modem.
-
- ---------------------------------
- Generic Installation Instructions
- ---------------------------------
-
- Unless otherwise noted, you can add modem drivers by following these
- steps.
-
- 1) Stop NetWare MHS and exit.
- 2) If you are running the Network Edition, re-login as a supervisor
- equivalent (necessary to change the MHS configuration and copy
- files to the MHS directory).
- 3) Copy all the extracted *.DEF and *.LOG files to your %MV\MHS\SYS
- directory (where %MV is the value of your MV environment variable).
- 4) Install your new modem following the manufacturer's instructions.
- 5) Type "MHS" and press <Enter> twice (to display the main menu)
- - Select "Manage Directories"
- - Select "Set up this host"
- 6) Set modem type to the correct driver name (eg HULTRA)
- - Set Default speed for modem (in this case 9600)
- 7) Exit to the Directory Manager
- - Exit to the main menu
- 8) Select "Setup Transport Server"
- - Set Speed sensing enabled to YES or NO depending on the modem
- - Change the modem type to the correct driver name (same as in
- step 4)
- - Change the modem speed to match that in step 4 (here it's 9600)
- 9) Make sure that all "hosts which call this host" have a baud rate
- compatible with yours in their host definition at this host.
- 10) Exit MHS, logout, and log MHS back in (for the Personal Edition,
- just restart MHS).
-
- General Note concerning high-speed modems:
-
- If you have an older computer or a PC/XT or PC compatible computer -
- check the chip used in the serial port. If the chip is an 8250 or 8250B
- it will NOT work at high speed. To allow high speed modems to be used,
- get an AT serial card that uses a faster version of the 8250 (numbered
- as a 82450, 16450, or 16550). An AT serial card WILL work in a PC/XT.

- Special Instructions for Hayes V-Series ULTRA Smartmodem 9600
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Modem driver name: HULTRA
- Default speed: 9600 *This must be the speed set for this driver. *
- Speed sensing enabled: NO (the modem does the speed sensing)
-
- Important Note: Hayes V-Series Modems REQUIRE RTS (pin 4) to be connected
- when the modem is connected at 9600 or the modem will not TRANSMIT data
- to the REMOTE modem. Some pre-made serial cables do not connect RTS to
- the computer. Please check that your cable connects the following lines
- from the modem to the computer: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 20, 22. The pins
- these lines connect to on the computer side depends on the style of
- computer. For example:
-
- o AT 9 Pin Connectors (Modem Pin Number is the FIRST Number)
- (Connector on Computer will be a 9 pin MALE (PINS) )
- 2-3, 3-2, 4-7, 5-8, 6-6, 7-5, 8-1, 20-4, 22-9
-
- o PC/AT 25 Pin Connectors (Modem Pin Number is the FIRST Number)
- (Connector on Computer will be a 25 pin MALE (Pins) )
- 2-2, 3-3, 4-4, 5-5, 6-6, 7-7, 8-8, 20-20, 22-22
-
- ALL LINES LISTED ARE REQUIRED ON BOTH STYLES.
-
- Also note that a 25 pin FEMALE is a PARALLEL PORT connector. Connecting
- the modem to a PARALLEL PORT *WILL* DAMAGE the PARALLEL PORT.
