4. If your legacy software doesnt have the correct modem
initialization string, you must change it. AT&F^M, which selects
the modems factory default settings, works well for most
connections. (^M is the code for the carriage return character that
sends the string to the modem.)
If you need extra time to make a connection, add S7=60 to the
string like this: AT&FS7=60^M.
For CompuServe, the initialization string is AT&F\N0^M. If you
use CompuServes WinCIM software, change the initialization
string to AT&F\N0\Q1^M for compatibility with WinCIMs
software flow control. Change the error correction string to
\N7%C0 and the data compression string to \N7%C1. If you want
the modem to always answer the phone, add S0=1 to the
initialization string.
Note: To change the modems default initialization string, type
the new commands in the softwares terminal window, adding the
command &W to store the new commands in the modems
nonvolatile memory, e.g., AT&FS0=1&W. You then can simplify
your initialization string to ATZ^M.
5. If you are using legacy software, select the port where the modem
is connected (normally, COM5).
6. For maximum throughput when using data compression, set the
serial port baud rate, or DTE rate, to 115,200 bps. (In Windows
95, select Start, Settings, Control Panel, Modems, and then
Properties.)
7. If your legacy sopftware has an autobaud selection, make sure it is
disabled. Autobaud is for older modems and can cause problems if
enabled.
8. If the software allows you to edit the no-connect messages (NO
CARRIER, BUSY, NO ANSWER, NO DIALTONE), make
sure there is no space between DIAL and TONE in NO
DIALTONE.
