From: aa384@cleveland.Freenet.Edu (Doug Wokoun) Subject: STraight FAX/telecommunications/commercial Date: Sat Apr 4 01:48:33 1992 Taken from: ST Report Online Magazine (#8.10) - March 6, 1992: | | | > STraight FAX! STR InfoFile "...new send/receive FAX program.." | ========================== | | | | compiled from: | GEnie ST RT | | JOPPA SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT | PRODUCT UPGRADE ANNOUNCEMENT | | From C.S. Smeton | | The new send/receive FAX program from Joppa Software Development, titled: | "STraight FAX!", will work with Class 2 compliant send/receive FAX modems | and SendFAX modems (in send only mode). | | We will be premiering this product at the TAF show in Toronto on April | 4-5, 1992. Also, we have been tentatively scheduled for an Online GEnie | conference on Wednesday, March 25, 1992 at 10:00 PM in the ST Roundtable. | | The FAX/modems that we have tested so far are the new Supra 2400/9600 and | the Zoom 2400/9600 FAX/modems.The Supra 9600/9600 and 14400/14400 FAX | modems should also work when they are released. We will be posting a list | of known modems that work with our software, as the list grows. | | The thing to check out is the manufacturer of the chip set and the | revision of the firmware, while there are only a few chip manufacturers | actually making the chips and firmware, there are many FAX/modem | manufacturers that use these chip sets. The Zoom and Supra FAX/modems that | we have tested use various chip sets and firmware available from Rockwell. | Sierra chip sets should also work with out any problems. Here is what | anyone can do to see if a FAX/Modem is compatible with our software: | | From a terminal program at 2400 baud... | | Type: | AT+FMFR? (followed by a carriage return) | The response will indicate the chip manufacturer. | | Type: | AT+FREV? (followed by a carriage return) | To determine the firmware revision. | | Type: | AT+FMDL? (followed by a carriage return) | To determine the modem model | | Type: | AT+FCLASS=? (followed by a carriage return) | to determine what protocol Classes the FAX/modem supports. | | If the response is: 0,2 Then the modem supports Class 2 | 0,1 Then the modem supports Class 1 | 0,1,2 The modem supports Class 1 & 2 | | Currently STraight FAX! does not support Class 1, but support for these | FAX/modems may be added if there is sufficient demand. Most new FAX/modems | will support Class 2. | | You can also type: | ATI4 (followed by a carriage return) | To determine the manufacturer. | | Also if the response to any of the above is ERROR, then the modem does not | support the feature that is being checked. | | Anyone can send the terminal program buffer capture of the above typed | commands to our GEnie mail address (JOPPA-SOFT) and we will attempt to | determine if the modem is supported. | | Joppa Software Development. | -- Doug Wokoun (aa384@cleveland.Freenet.Edu) - - - Atari SIG
