USR 56K FAXMODEM SET-UP COMMANDS FOR OPT 11 1

[mabery]

I am trying to set up USR 56k Faxmodem which has no dip switches on Opt 11 and when using some of the commands previously listed for 56k modem, I get error or NO CARRIER. Any ideas ? or should I go for another type of modem, which is a waste as this was found on site.

You will have to find documentation on that modem and use commands to make it a "Dumb" device.

 

[janaya]

I don't think you will get that one to work. The modem has to be programmable. That is why they send those modems with new installs.

compile this script and run it... do not have the modem connected to line.

; Use ATS0=2 C/R (Number of rings for modem to answer = 2)
; (I've found that a minimum number of 2 rings is best!)
; Use ATM0 C/R (Speaker on modem = OFF & ATM1 = Speaker on until connected)

; Before you disconnect the line connection,
; Make sure that you are back into the Meridian SL1 program!.
; Also key "+++" first & wait until you get the "OK" prompt.
; (It takes you back to the modem!)
; If you don't do this,

You got my vote...
good post gibblett

 

[mabery]

thanks for this info, but I do not have Procom, only Hyperterminal...

This might be of some use to you or others -


When connecting Superhighway 56 External Modems to Meridian systems the following commands should be entered to ensure correct operation.

· Connect PC to modem with appropriate setting. Eg 9600 baud, 8,1,none

· Enter the following AT string
AT&F (Resets Modem to factory default)
AT&D0&K0&R1&S0&Y0 (&Y0 Ensures profile 0 is used on power up)
ATB0E0L2M1Q1V1X3Y0 (no output from modem)
AT S0=1 (Auto answer after 1 ring)
AT&W (Save settings)

· Connect modem and test.
· To view settings enter AT&V (It should look something like below)

· ACTIVE PROFILE:
· B0 E0 L2 M1 N0 Q1 T V1 W0 X3 Y0 &C1 &D0 &G0 &J0 &K0 &Q5 &R1 &S0 &T5 &X0 &Y0

Cables to connect to Meridian

· Option 11 Always connect remote access modem to port 0 where possible as certain functions can only be performed over this port. The 3 way - cable supplied with the option 11 is wired for modem connection so can connect straight in to the modem.

· Opt 51 to 81 There are various types of SDI card that you may come across but the ports should be wired out to a standard 25-way connector on the rear I/O panel. To extend this to a modem or terminal Nortel cable NT8D95 (various lengths) can be used or any standard 25 way cable. The SDI port needs to be strapped for DTE / DCE as required (see NTP’s for settings), or a Null Modem adapter may be required.
The exception to this is if an SDI paddle board is used. These are wired out to the I/O panel but are presented as none standard 9-way connections. Nortel cable NT8D93 is required to connect to a terminal or modem. Again the DTE / DCE needs setting as appropriate.


If a baud rate other than 9600 is required, ie1200 Bd try the following:

AT+MS=1,0,1200,1200
