Equipment and Software Requirements
|
||
-----------------------------------
|
||
|
||
To use PC PURSUIT, all you need are --
|
||
|
||
- a telephone line
|
||
- a modem - 300 or 1200 or 2400bps
|
||
- a terminal or a PC with asynchronous communications software
|
||
|
||
PARAMETERS:
|
||
-----------
|
||
Communication parameters for your hardware should be set-up
|
||
consistent with the PC or BBS or host computer you wish to dial.
|
||
|
||
FILE TRANSFERS:
|
||
---------------
|
||
Most transfer protocols are compatible with PC PURSUIT.
|
||
Across SPRINTNET'S Public Data Network, PC PURSUIT transmits
|
||
data utilizing 8 bit transparency. Due to XMODEM'S use of
|
||
single block by block acknowledgement of data sent, XMODEM
|
||
file transfers can take slightly longer. There are
|
||
however, more efficent transfer protocols such as KERMIT,
|
||
SUPER KERMIT and YMODEM.
|
||
|
||
You can dial into SprintNet as 7-E-1 or 8-N-1. If you dial
|
||
in at 7-E-1, you can switch your parameters to 8-N-1 with
|
||
your software to prepare for a file transfer. Or, dial
|
||
SprintNet at 8-N-1 to begin with, using these steps --
|
||
|
||
1) Dial your SprintNet local access number with your settings
|
||
at 8-N-1 and 2400 bps.
|
||
|
||
2) Enter @ D (cr)
|
||
|
||
3) At "Terminal = ", enter D1 (cr)
|
||
|
||
4) proceed with your session....
