Disclaimer For Communications Application Configurations For Intel Faxmodems
Intel provides suggested communications application configurations solely as a service to Intel faxmodem customers. Intel assumes no responsibility for errors or omissions in this information. Nor does Intel make any commitment to update this information. If you have questions or problems while configuring a communications application, consult the manual or the manufacturer of the application CC:Mail Remote 3.0
This program is compatible with Intel modems.
Modem Setup Notes:
For the SatisFAXtion Modem/350 and Upgraded SatisFAXtion Classic, run Setup and select a valid COM/IRQ combination. The valid combinations are COM1/IRQ4, COM2/IRQ3, COM3/IRQ4 and COM4/IRQ3. Because DOS communication applications do not let you use one IRQ for two COM ports, you can not use COM1 and COM3 at the same time, or COM2 and COM4.
Let the SETUP program add this line to CONFIG.SYS:
DEVICE=C:\FAX\SATISFAX.SYS IOADDR=0350
Run TESTCOM to test the modem port.
Configuring the Program: Run the REMOTE.EXE program in the CC:MAIL subdirectory and select your modem from the menu (select "Hayes Compatible" if you don't see your modem.) Then choose "touch" or "rotary dial" as supported by your local phone company. Now you must select the speed that is best suited for your modem.
- For the 9600EX/14.4EX:
- Select 57600
- For the Intel 2400 V.42bis & MNP Modems:
- Select 9600
- For the other INTEL 2400 baud modems:
- Select 2400
Then, select a COM port. CC:MAIL 3.0 will accept COM1 through COM4, but is only able to access the IRQ combinations as provided by the IBM specification. The valid combinations are COM1/IRQ4, COM2/IRQ3, COM3/IRQ4 and COM4/IRQ3. As noted in your Intel documentation, duplicate use of any IRQ is not allowed for a DOS communications application. Thus, if you have COM1 and COM2 installed, then COM3 & COM4 (which use the same IRQ's) will not be valid choices for a Classic Bus system.
Additional Command line parameters are also available as outlined in Appendix G.
Lotus suggests using the following cc:Mail Remote command lines:
For the Intel 14.4/14.4e Faxmodem:
REMOTE COMM/LOCK MODEM/AT\C1\V3
For the Intel upgraded SatisFAXtion Classic:
REMOTE
For the Intel 14.4ex Modem:
REMOTE COMM/LOCK MODEM/AT\V3
CC:Mail Remote - Router Program 4.00 Command Lines And Notes:
Lotus has supplied the following startup command lines for the cc:Mail Remote Router program.
For the Intel SatisFAXtion Modem/350 (internal):
ROUTER M:\CCDATA 57600/LOCK RESET/ATZ
For the Intel 14.4EXF Modem:
ROUTER M:\CCDATA COM1 57600/LOCK
For the Intel Upgraded SatisFAXtion Classic:
ROUTER M:\CCDATA COM1 9600
For the Intel 144/144e Faxmodem:
ROUTER M:\CCDATA COM1 57600/LOCK MODEM/AT\C1\V3
For the Intel 14.4ex Modem:
ROUTER M:\CCDATA COM1 57600/LOCK MODEM/AT\V3
NOTES: Lotus* recommends using Router version 4.00 or greater to support high-speed modems. If your database file is not M:CCDATA, substitute the correct file name and location. If the modem is not using COM1, substitute the correct COM port.
See the bottom of page A-6 in the Intel 14.4ex Modem Installation Guide for important information regarding connections to US Robotics HST and Trailblazer PEP Modems. CC:MAIL GATEWAY: Suggested Configuration For Intel Faxmodems, Intel High Speed Modems
Lotus recommends that cc:Mail Gateway run on a dedicated workstation in a single-tasking environment. Multi-tasking environments introduce new variables that can interfere with asynchronous communications.
Here is the cc:Mail Gateway command recommended by Lotus for Intel High Speed Faxmodems:
GATEWAY database port 19200/LOCK MODEM/AT&FX3M0
Replace "database" with the drive and path for the cc:Mail database. Replace "port" with the COM port to which the modem is connected.
The parameter "19200/LOCK" sets the port to 19200 baud and locks the baud rate.
The parameter "MODEM/AT&FX3M0" initializes the modem to operate in the manner in which cc:Mail expects.
