US Robotics modem model 5686 1

[PPDave]

Please help! What settings do I need to use to get a US Robotics external modem to work on a ScoUnix server. Right now the modem starts to answer but never does establish a connection.

Thanks,

Is the modem port enable ?
Have you an ACU line for this port in /usr/lib/uucp/Devices ?
Have you tried mkdev modem ?

Hope This Help, PH.

Should work out of the box as a Hayes2400.
What gettydef token are you using to describe the connection and what terminal port are you using?

Hi PHV!
Well, I use on my sco machines us robo 56k ext (2 make remote assistance).
Usually I configure us robo usin' these steps:

1) I use the com2 port
2) disable tty2a
3) disable tty2A
4) editing the /etc/ttytype file and insert (if not exist) :
ansi tty2a
ansi tty2A
5) editing the file /etc/inittab and find the string what terminate with 2A and replace the speed at the end of the string like this:
1 = 1200
2 = 2400
3 = 4800
m = 9600
n = 19200
Tipically I use the n speed
6) editing the /etc/conf/init.d/sio file. Search the 2A (Se2A) and setting the speed like inittab
7) launch enable tty2A

After this, I configure the modem with AT commands, and that's all.

Sorry if my english is not good! But I think U understand all the same! Ah! sarch into

check /usr/lib/uucp/Devices and look for a line that starts with ACU. and see what dialer is configured to be used. Personally I have never had good luck with any of the later usr dialers, so i just keep a copy of an older one (July 1997) atdialUSR and use it, never any problems then.

Thanks Francesco, your post (and the others) was very helpful. If you don't mind, I think I have to enter some AT commands into the modem.

Can u suggest what these should be?

Thanks,

dave

If you will create the Devices items for ACU and direct and use the hayes 2400 set in dialers you will have everything you need.In those cases I've needed to lock stuff, I've done it by modifying it in dialers.

Hi PPDave!
Here are AT commands!
When I use AT commands, I use a simple terminal emulator under windows.

1) AT&F
2) AT&D0 (Dzero)
3) AT&C1
4) AT\N3
5) AT&K5
6) ATS0=2 (ATSzero ... this command is: "response after 2 driiinnnnn")
7) ATE0 (ATEzero)
8) ATQ1
9) AT&W0 (AT&Wzero)


Ciaoooooooo!


Francesco
