Setup hints for using BGFAX with FD 2.11/SW 11-14-93
B.J. Guillot
FidoNet 106/400 InterNet: st1r8@jetson.uh.edu
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep in mind that fax commands cannot be stored in NVRAM.
Here is the relevant information from FDSETUP ...
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Command Strings
Init-1 ... atz|
Init-2 ... at+fcr=1;+fdcc=1,5,0,2,0,0,0,0|
Init-3 ... at+flid="713 555 1212"|
+fcr=1 enables fax receiption
+flid="713 555 1212" sets your FAX ID, up to 20 characters
+fdcc=1,5,0,2,0,0,0,0 enable high resolution, 14400 fax
+fdcc=1,3,0,2,0,0,0,0 enable high resolution, 9600 fax
Do not attempt to give a 9600 maximum speed send/receive fax modem the 1,5
string as it will cause unpredicable results.
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Answer control
Manual answer Yes
Force answer ... at+faa=1;a|
The "at+faa=1;a" causes the modem to answer adaptively, i.e., to
automatically determine whether the incoming call is fax or data and return
the response to the modem.
[FDSETUP] Mailer -> Errorlevels
Fax ... 255
==========================================================================
If you are using a modem such as a Supra that returns a "FAX" response
proceed with the following instructions ( METHOD #1 ) ...
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Default Settings -> Messages
Fax ... FAX
FDRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
@echo off
c:
cd\fd
fd
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fax c:\bgfax 1 z
if errorlevel 103 maint.bat
if errorlevel 102 toss.bat
if errorlevel 101 local.bat
if errorlevel 100 dobbs.bat
==========================================================================
If you are using a modem such as a PPI FXMT that returns a "+FCON" response
proceed with the following instructions ( METHOD #2 ) ...
[FDSETUP] Modem -> Messages
Fax ... +FCON
FDRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
@echo off
c:
cd\fd
fd
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fcon c:\bgfax 1 z
if errorlevel 103 maint.bat
if errorlevel 102 toss.bat
if errorlevel 101 local.bat
if errorlevel 100 dobbs.bat
If BGFAX fails to work properly, try using this line instead:
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fast c:\bgfax 1 z
