Purpose:
The files contained in 400WIN.EXE can be used to set up
a Intel SatisFAXtion/400 as a Class 1 FAX under OS/2.
Introduction:
The 400WIN.EXE file contained in this zipped file is from the
Intel BBS (503-645-6275) and is a self-extracting file. It was
designed to setup the FAX portion of the SatisFAXtion/400 to a
Class 1 FAX for use under Windows. Since the driver is DOS-based,
it can be loaded by DOS under OS/2 during startup and then used
by OS/2.
Installation:
1. If you already have the SatisFAXtion/400 modem working under OS/2:
a) Copy 400WIN.EXE to the directory where the SatisFAXtion/400
software is installed (usually C:\FAX).
b) At a DOS prompt, change to the SatisFAXtion/400 directory
(usually C:\FAX).
c) Run 400WIN.EXE by typing WIN400 at the prompt and hitting
enter. The files CLASS1.EXE and READNOW.TXT will be extracted.
d) Read the READNOW.TXT file provided in 400WIN.EXE and
follow the instructions for setting up the FAX under DOS.
Make certain you do not allow your Config.Sys or AutoExec.Bat
to be overwritten. Also, when done running SETUP, do not
allow the machine to re-boot (Hit CTRL-ESC for a window list
and close the DOS session to exit. Perform a shutdown and
then re-boot).
e) Run the DOS window you already have setup to initialize the
SatisFAXtion/400. The Class 1 FAX driver is now loaded.
f) For OS/2, use a Class 1 FAX setup with the FAX software
you have (for example, a SatisFAXtion/400e).
2. If you do not have the SatisFAXtion/400 working under OS/2.
a) You must setup the modem to work under OS/2 before starting
to setup the FAX features.
b) Download the files SATISFAX.ZIP and/or OS2_COM.ZIP for
instructions on setting up the SatisFAXtion/400 modem.
When done, follow the instructions above.

400WIN.EXE Class 1 FAX driver for SatisFAXtion/400 from Intel BBS.
Comments:
You can use the modem or the FAX part of the SatisFAXtion/400,
but not both at the same time, since the communication port
is shared. When following the instructions for initially setting
up the modem features of the SatisFAXtion/400, you can use
a DOS boot disk (v3.3 or higher) and use "DOS from Drive A:" in a
full-screen session under OS/2 to load the software instead of
booting real DOS (really helpful if you only have HPFS and OS/2
loaded on your system). This patch was tested using the "FaxWorks for
OS/2" program provided in Warp OS/2. Simple patch, but it works.
