OSMKSAFA - CONFIGURING OS/2 TO RUN WITH THE INTEL SATISFAXTION
400 BAUD INTERNAL MODEM
07/11/96
=======================================================================
Configuring OS/2 to Run with the Intel SatisFAXtion 400 Internal Modem
=======================================================================
Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
--------------------------------------------------------------
DESCRIPTION
Applications are unable to use the Intel SatisFAXtion 400 modem when
running under OS/2.
RESOLUTION
The Intel SatisFAXtion modem comes with the DOS device driver,
SATISFAX.SYS, which initializes and configures the modem at
startup. This driver can be loaded from an OS/2 DOS session.
Once it is loaded, the DOS session can be ended; the modem will
stay configured until the system is turned off.
To configure the DOS session and the driver:
1. Install the software that came with the modem as described
in the modem's manual. Make sure you remember the port
address that the modem is using.
2. Drag a Program object from the Templates folder to the
Startup folder. (By default, the Templates folder is on the Desktop
and the Startup folder is in the OS/2 System folder.)
A Settings notebook will be displayed.
3. Enter an * in the Path and filename field.
4. Enter /c EXIT in the Parameters field.
5. Go to the Session page; then select DOS Window.
6. Click on DOS settings.
7. Click on OK; this will select ALL DOS settings.
8. Find the DOS_DEVICE setting and enter the following:
x:\SFAX\SATISFAX.SYS IOADDR=XXXX
(x is the drive letter where the Intel SatisFAXtion software
is installed; SFAX is the directory where the software was
installed; XXXX is the I/O address the modem is using.
9. Click on Save.
10. Close the Settings notebook.
The next time you start the system, it will start a DOS session
that loads SATISFAX.SYS; then it will exit. The modem then should
work.
