Release Note on Elite 2864 Version 0.01 May 16, 1995
1. Please press the D/V button and turn on the Elite 2864 to do a hardware
reset on the modem and have the modem load in the factory default
settings and run a power on self-test at 57600 bps DTE speed and
28800 bps DCE speed.
2. Please use ATI1 to check the modem's version. Firmware version 0.xx is
used for á-test. If the a date code is displayed, the version is prior to
0.01 or it is just a temporary test version. The formal commercial
version will start from version 1.00.
3. If the date code is prior to 5/15/95, please use ATUPX or ATUPA to update
the firmware to version 0.01. The firmware file is E2864.001. Refer
to chapter 3 of the 2864 series modem user's manual for procedures of
updating the firmware.
4. Available FAX command set : a> Class-6 ZFAX
b> Class-2 FAX
c> Class-2.0 FAX
5. For fax printing feature, please refer to 2864 series modem user's
anual.
Be sure to issue "AT+FZT" command to test your printer speed. The
modem will adjust scan line time to fit your printer speed, and
this speed parameter will be saved in non-volatile memory. You don't
have to issue "AT+FZT" command again when you turn on the modem
next time.
6. Please refer to the chapter 4 of "2864 SERIES MODEM USER'S MANUAL"
for the new VOICE features.

AT+VTD=,
where set the tone generation duration and set
the interval for every comma in the +VTS command.
the units are 10msec and the default vale for is 50
and is 7.
9. The +VDD command is revised to :
The range of is from 0 to 15 and the default value is 4.

Be sure to include +FCLASS=2 (or 2.0) in the FAX S/W initialization
string when used to retrieve FAX out of DRAM.
This version of F/W is only for beta test. Please do not use this
ersion
to receive your important fax. It may lose FAX pages in some abnormal
conditions.

Release Note on Elite 2864 Version 1.00 Jly 19, 1995
1. Not finished functions but will be included in the near future:
* Remote configuration
* Password check and call back security
2. Known bugs but will be corrected in the near future:
* cellular mode connection:
Cell mode works fine between U1496 and Elite. Sometimes, it does not
work between Elite and Elite.
* In the on-line help, there are no descriptions of the commands ATN0-7
and ATO1.
* Setting s35=96 and then issuing at&w0 the profile protection function
works correctly for the first time. For every later issued at&w0
command, the modem will ask for the password but it will give an
"Error"
response when the correct password is entered.
* ATS0:
If you give ATS0=3 or other values, very often the modem answers on
the first ring.
* ATS1:
The S1 register does not collect the number of rings received.
* ATS38:
The command S38=32 (or S38.5=1) that disables MNP5 doesn't work.
* connect message:
When a V22bis connection is made, the modem displays a V22
connection.
3. Fixed bugs in the version:
* Caller ID:
Caller ID works fine at 57.6K bps but it has problems at 115.2K bps.
The problem is when one gets the caller name: xxxxxxxx but then the
caller
nummber has garbage characters.
* command *q3:
when the line condition is bad the connection is not dropped.
