- Setup hints for using BGFAX with FD 2.12/SW and Class 1 modems 07-14-95
- B.J. Guillot
- FidoNet 1:106/400 InterNet: bjg90783@jetson.uh.edu
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- All FD*.TXT files are good for both FD 2.12/SW and FD 2.20/ML. One note
- is needed for FD 2.20/ML: [FDSETUP] Modem -> Fax -> Internal = "NO".
-
- Keep in mind that fax commands CANNOT be stored in NVRAM. Be sure that
- your modem is NOT set to "Auto Answer" mode. REGISTER S0 MUST EQUAL 0.
- This is a data register and CAN be set in NVRAM.
-
- Here is the relevant information from FDSETUP ...
-
- [FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Command Strings
- Dial ..... AT
- Prefix .. +FCLASS=0;DT
- Init-1 ... ATHZ|
- Init-2 ... AT+FCLASS=1|
- Init-3 ... AT+FAE=1|
-
- [FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Answer control
- Manual answer Yes
- Force answer ... ATA|
- Answer delay ... 2
-
- The "at+fae=1" causes the modem to answer adaptively, i.e., to automatically
- determine whether the incoming call is fax or data and return the response
- to the modem. The Answer delay may need to be modified if you are using
- Caller ID in the Supra LC modem or an external box with the Hayes 288.
-
- [FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Messages
- Fax ... CONNECT FAX <-- THIS IS WRONG
- Fax ... FAX <-- RIGHT, GOOD, OKAY
-
- [FDSETUP] Mailer -> Errorlevels
- Fax ... 255
-
- FDRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
-
- @echo off
- c:
- cd\fd
- fd
- if errorlevel 255 goto fax
- if errorlevel 103 maint.bat
- if errorlevel 102 toss.bat
- if errorlevel 101 local.bat
- if errorlevel 100 dobbs.bat
- goto end
- :fax
- rem ---1 is for com1 and z is for zfax format
- bgfax /fhay:713_555_1212 c:\bgfax 1 z
- rem ---if that fails, try /fax:713_555_1212
- fdrun.bat
- :end
