PE> I think I've seen two 19200's from you.

FM> Maybe, I only recall one.

Actually, I think I've seen something like 3 now, can't remember
for sure.

PE> No, I'm talking about Telix 2.12 (I think), long before they
PE> created a decent script language.

FM> Without the script language it would seem to be very like Procomm, which
FM> I used to use. (Maybe Procomm has a script language, my version came
FM> with a modem I once won in a magazine competition, with no doco.)

They did have a script language.  The thing that impressed me was
the way it worked, and it was easy to get it working, unlike all
the others that simply hung.

PE> I think that will cause you to stuff up.  Unless you tell the
PE> modem not to run locked too.  BTW, I have another theory, that
PE> you are losing the CONNECT string because there is an
PE> automatic script connected to your connect.  A delay_script()
PE> (or whatever) for a second or two would probably allow those
PE> characters to come through.  From memory, delays() [or whatever]
PE> will let you be in "normal" telix mode for that time, allowing
PE> you to send and receive characters normally, instead of having
PE> the script swallowing them.

FM> Well I don't really understand this, but it was this comment of yours
FM> that prompted me to remove the 2 delays which I'd put in to stop
FM> over-running you when you were using the 2400. *I* would have thought
FM> the modems would have already agreed on the speed to run at, by the time
FM> you are actually sending characters.

Two things:

1. The reason you are not seeing the "CONNECT" string is probably
because you are running a script at the time.  You have to either
not run a script or you have to pull a trick.  I was explaining
a trick that MIGHT work.

2. The delays are caused because you are not meant to be sending a
response to my message until I have sent about 133 characters.  With
my high-speed modem, even operating at 2400, I can get those 133
characters into the modem before you get a chance to respond.
With my old 2400 modem, this was not the case.

PE> FM> and *N8 - his codes were for the Spirit II.

PE> You might want to try *N8 actually.  Or *N6 or whatever, try

FM> I meant, I left it as *M8 (19200) instead of Trev's suggested *N6
FM> (14400).

PE> some of the ones between 2400 and 19200.  See if even though
PE> you can't get 19200 regularly, you MIGHT be able to get 14400
PE> regularly, or 9600 regularly, etc.  BFN.  Paul.

FM> Hopefully this latest change will be permanent, and I won't have to
FM> stuff around with this. 

I think you need to stuff around with this.  :-)  I also don't
think it will actually work.

FM> If it is, what did you want me to test with retrains?

You've already done it, thanks.  BFN.  Paul.
