- 2. What is SoftModem Technology and what are its benefits?
-
-
- The SoftModem (tm) Technology Story
-
- Digicom Systems' exclusive SoftModem Technology has revolutionized
- modem design using a general-purpose, reprogrammable Digital Signal
- Processing (DSP) chip. This neat software solution allows you to take
- advantage of on-board RAM-based modem/DSP memory. The SoftModem
- approach allows operational algorithms to be easily installed, quickly
- changed, and most importantly, upgraded via software.
-
- Designed using upgradeable hardware architecture, SoftModem Technology
- provides the flexibility necessary to keep up with evolving
- communications standards and changing command interfaces. In
- addition, this design improves support and service and facilitates the
- integration of data, fax, and voice-related applications.
-
- SoftModem Technology provides all the standard features and
- characteristics of a high-speed, high-performance modem as a hardware
- programmable solution that can be modified or enhanced and then
- distributed over the telephone line, computer networks or on a
- diskette.
-
- Based on SoftModem Technology
-
- Upgrade modem features without changing the hardware. That means you
- can keep up with changing standards and save money. Just install new
- software to get more out of your modem!
-
- FREE ROM updates such as V.32bis (14,400 bps), V.42bis and MNP5
- (data compression) can be downloaded.
-
- Feature upgrades like Send/Receive V.17 Fax (14,400 bps) and
- V.32terbo (19,200 bps) will be available from your local computer
- reseller or online distributors.
-
- The Connection 144+ is the world's first software upgradeable modem.
- It's based on SoftModem Technology, which reduces the risk of
- obsolescence that is always a problem with traditional modems.
- Protect your modem investment - the Connection 14.4+ will serve your
- needs for years to come.
-
- 3. What's so special about Digicom?
-
- Some background on Digicom: Digicom Systems, Inc. was one of the first
- to realize the power and flexibility of digital signal processing
- solutions in data communications (in 1987). DSI then emerged as a
- leader in modem DSP design which allowed them the flexibility to
- introduce the first V.32 modem using just one, albeit very powerful
- DSP. Digicom introduced the industry's first V.32bis modem to market,
- the first V.32bis modem with send and receive fax capability and very
- recently the first modem based on SoftModem Technology. A local
- Silicon Valley manufacturer.
-
- 4. Can you explain Signal Computing Architecture?
-
- Digicom's products are based on Analog Devices general purpose digital
- signal processors, abbreviated DSP. Modem algorithms require powerful
- computational resources and DSPs are well suited to meet them cost
- effectively.
-
- Analog Devices has introduced a common architecture for its DSPs and
- the accompanying peripheral chips. It is called the Signal Computing
- Architecture. The advantages of this approach are manifold. Companies
- developing in different areas of digital signal processing like voice,
- data communications, graphics can join efforts more easily and offer a
- more unified interface to application program developers. The Signal
- Computing Architecture is indeed very popular at present and is
- attracting more and more developers, like AOX, Cardinal, Dialogic,
- Hewlett Packard, Media Vision, Spectron and many others. For
- interested readers BYTE magazine's four article series on Signal
- Computing may be a good start (November 1992).
-
- The Signal Computing Architecture is emerging as a cost effective
- albeit powerful and versatile platform for communications and
- multimedia applications.
-
- 5. Are there Digicom related ftp sites?
-
-
- feenix.metronet.com /pub/wolfgang SoftModem related files. The
- subdirectory /smodem carries the
- latest production algorithms and
- open beta files. Drivers for
- Linux and OS/2 are available here.

- 6. What is the recommended setup for PCs, Macs and Suns?
-
- Here are a few simple setup strings for three different operating
- systems which work well for the author. They should work with the
- Digicom Scout+ as well as Digicom 9624 series of modems.
-
- For the Connection 14.4+ modems AT&F&W1 should work fine in most
- cases. Enabling &W1 will report error correction call progress when
- connecting.

- Subject: Fax Services Wanted
- Reply-To: satnews@cix.compulink.co.uk
-
-
- Greetings, I am looking for a low cost service which I can use to send
- faxes around the world. I have prime requirements to send fax to NA
- and the Asia Pacific regions.
-
- I could do with single copy and mailing list type services. Ideally
- I'd like to deliver straight ASCII via Internet for faxing out, *but*
- it must not have lots of urwry@fax.me. received @iworuw.;rwioruwr.wriu
- type gibberish; ergo, I'd want a similar output to that you'd expect
- through a fax card and winfax.
-
- Any ideas? By mail please!

-
- Brendan Kehoe, Cu Digest archivist at ftp.eff.org and author of ZEN
- AND THE ART OF THE INTERNET, was critically injured in an automobile
- accident in Pennsylvania on Friday, 31 December. He sustained massive
- head injuries, but on Monday, the prognosis for his survival was
- "cautiously optimistic," according to his brother. Tragically, the
- severity of the injuries will likely produce permanent disability,
- although the nature and extent remains uncertain at this time. Doctors
- expect that he will be semi-comatose for at least two weeks.
-
- The hospital is not allowing him to receive flowers or other
- tangibles. Cards may be sent to him at:
-
- Brendan Kehoe
- c/o Alice Kehoe
- Penn Tower Hotel
- Civic Center Blvd ad 34th Street
- Philadelphia, PA 19104

- Brendan will not be able to directly communicate for some time. But,
- his brother and a few friends intend to set up a net-link to keep
- people informed of his condition.

- Subject: How to Send Your Thoughts to Brendan Kehoe
-
-
- As Pat noted in a previous issue of TELECOM Digest, Brendan Kehoe was
- seriously injured in a car crash on 31 December. Brendan's wit and
- helpfulness earned him many friends. The Cu Digest editors are
- encouraging netfolk to send electronic messages to him that include a
- joke, funny story, or a "get-well" recipe. The editors will accept
- e-mail contributions until about January 19. Then, we'll print the
- responses on rag-bond paper, bind them, and send them to him as a "net
- anthology."
-
- Send notes to: tk0jut2@mvs.cso.niu.edu
- with the subject header: TO BRENDAN

-
- [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: I hope all readers of this Digest who
- are familiar with Brendan Kehoe will take a few minutes sometime in
- the next week or so to send their thoughts to Jim and Gordon per the
- examples above. I hope they get so much stuff they have to make two
- or three volumes to hold it all! :) PAT]

- Unfortunately some of us don't know how to get hold of the current
- issue of the CUD. Could you please post a pointer to it, or post the
- appropriate sections here.

- [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: The message before this one explains
- how to write to Brendan. For those readers who are not familiar with
- Computer Underground Digest, now is a good time to tell you about it.
- It began back in 1990 as an overflow mailing list for a series of
- messages here in TELECOM Digest dealing with hacking and phreaking,
- and some persons who had been arrested and put on trial for related
- things. The messages just kept rolling in and CuD stayed around to
- become -- like this Digest -- a very popular, very well-read e-journal
- on the computer networks of the world. CuD should definitly be on your
- 'must read' list of e-journals and if you would like to subscribe I'm
- sure you'll enjoy it as much as I do.
-
- Let me repeat the address Jim Thomas gave earlier:
-
- tk0jut2@mvs.cso.niu.edu
-
- This will get you a free subscription to our sister publication,
- Computer Underground Digest, and I hope you will sign up today. PAT]

- Where in Pennsylvania is Newton? I know of West Newton, Newton
- Hamilton, Newtown Square, and Newtown.
-
-
- [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Good point, Carl. According to my Rand
- McNally atlas there are two separate communities in Pennsylvania each
- called "Newtown"; between them their combined population is less than
- four thousand people. There appears to be no such place as 'Newton'
- in Pennsylvania. Perhaps JT or the writer of the original message will
- issue a correction. In the meantime, his mother Alice is staying in
- Philadelphia; see an earlier message in this issue. PAT]
