Equipment and Software Requirements
-----------------------------------
To use PC PURSUIT, all you need are --
- a telephone line
- a modem - 300 or 1200 bps
- a terminal or a PC with asynchronous communications software
PARAMETERS:
-----------
Communication parameters for your hardware should be set-up
consistent with the PC or BBS or host computer you wish to dial.
FILE TRANSFERS:
---------------
Most transfer protocols are compatible with PC PURSUIT.
Across TELENET'S Public Data Network, PC PURSUIT transmits
data utilizing 8 bit transparency. Due to XMODEM'S use of
single block by block acknowledgement of data sent, XMODEM
file transfers can take slightly longer. There are
however, more efficent transfer protocols such as KERMIT,
SUPER KERMIT and YMODEM.
You will note that you must use parameter settings of 7
data bits, Even parity, and 1 stop bit to dial into your
local Telenet access number. Once connected to your dest-
ination computer or bbs, you can switch to 8 data bits,
No parity, and 1 stop bit if needed to do file transfers
with XMODEM or other 8-bit protocols. Some communication
software packages will automatically change your parameters
once the file transfer is initiated.
