Setup hints for using BGFAX with the USR 21.6K/FD 2.11 12-22-93
B.J. Guillot
FidoNet 106/400 InterNet: st1r8@jetson.uh.edu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: If you want to use a 09/20/93 model USR modem with BGFAX, you
will need to use BGFAX 1.08. This version works only with the
12/08/93 beta firmware.
Keep in mind that fax commands cannot be stored in NVRAM.
Here is the relevant information from FDSETUP ...
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Command Strings
Dial ..... AT
Prefix .. +FCLASS=0DT
Init-1 ... ATZ|
Init-2 ... AT+FCLASS=2.0|
Init-3 ... AT+FLI="713 555 1212"|
+fclass=0dt enables data mode operation on outgoing calls
+fclass=2.0 enables fax mode operation
+flid="713 555 1212" sets your FAX ID, up to 20 characters
+fnr=1,1 tells modem to let BGFAX know connect speed
Do NOT worry about the +FCC (a.k.a. +FDCC) and +FCR settings.
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Answer control
Manual answer Yes
Force answer ... AT+FCLASS=2.0|~+FAA=1+FNR=1,1,1;A|
The "+faa=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.
[FDSETUP] Mailer -> Errorlevels
Fax ... 255
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Messages
Fax ... +FCO
21600 ... CONNECT XXXXX
38400 ... CONNECT 21600
The "CONNECT 21600" string is included because there is a BUG in FD 2.11
that does not allow the 'real' 21600 box to function. You *must* set the
'real' 21600 box to something bogus such as "CONNECT XXXXX".
FDRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
@echo off
c:
cd\fd
fd
rem ***** if /FCO gives you problems, try using /FCON
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fco c:\bgfax 1 z
if errorlevel 103 maint.bat
if errorlevel 102 toss.bat
if errorlevel 101 local.bat
if errorlevel 100 dobbs.bat
