-
- NOTE: US Robotics owners, please read over the USR section in the READ.ME
- file before proceeding!
-
- Please make sure the following two items are true before proceeding...
- (1) DIP switch #5 is in the "SUPPRESS AUTO ANSWER" position
- (2) You have already put all relevant DATA commands for the BBS into NVRAM
-
- Note that, generally, fax (AT+F) commands CANNOT be stored in NVRAM.
-
- Run PCBSETUP.EXE and make the following changes in the modem section...
- (Do not use PCBMODEM.)
-
- Make the following changes...
-
- Init-1 ATZ^M~~ATS0=0+FCLASS=2.0
- Init-2 AT+FNR=1,1,1,1;+FLI="713 555 1212"
- Offhook ATH1M0
- Answer AT+FAA=1;A
- Dialout AT+FCLASS=0DT
-
- If your BOARD.BAT file (or, whatever the file is that starts up your BBS),
- after the PCB.EXE line...
-
- pcb.exe
- if errorlevel 7 rcvfax.bat
-
- (If you have any other "if errorlevel" lines in your BOARD.BAT, remember
- that errorlevel numbers must be in DESCENDING order: 9,8,7,6,5, etc.)
-
- Make a new file called RCVFAX.BAT that says the following:
- @echo off
- bgfax /fco:4 c:\bgfax 1 z
- board.bat
-
- The "1" is for COM1. Change that if necessary for your modem.
-
- If you are using PC Board/2 and BGFAX/2 (OS/2 executables), instead of the
- "1" for COM1, you might need "H%pcbhandle%" or "V1" depending upon what
- version of PC Board/2 you are using. The "H" tells BGFAX that instead of
- a port number, a port handle follows. The "V" tells BGFAX to open the
- port followed by the "V" in VBBS-compatability mode, which is needed on
- some of the newer versions of PC Board/2. Example:
- bgfax2 /fco:4 c:\bgfax v1 z
-
- P.S... USR's FAX/ARQ light WILL flash when waiting for calls!
