Setup hints for using BGFAX with Intermail 2.21 09-14-93
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 IMSETUP ...
[IMSETUP] Modem -> Advanced Setup -> 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"|
[IMSETUP] Modem -> Advanced Setup -> Answer Control
Manual answer Yes
Force answer at+faa=1a|
The force answer string should really be "at+faa=1;a", but this will not
fit. The Supra modem will not care. Others might.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
[IMSETUP] Modem -> Advanced Setup -> Connect Strings
You will see a list of 14 or so preconfigured connect strings, press
<INSERT> to add one. If your modem returns "FAX" on a fax call, like the
Supra, use the first string provided. If your modem returns "+FCON" on a
fax call, like the PPI FXMT, use the second string.
Connect Message Speed EC BBSexit Terminate
FAX 19200 N 0 255
+FCON 19200 N 0 255
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notice that "BBSexit" is equal to ZERO.
IMRUN.BAT should contain something similar to ...
@echo off
c:
cd\im
im
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
The /fax means your modem reports "FAX". If it reports "+FCON" use one of
these two lines.
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fcon c:\bgfax 1 z
or
if errorlevel 255 bgfax /fast c:\bgfax 1 z
You will have to experiment to determine which is correct.
