W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA (Keith Petersen) (09/03/85)
In SIMTEL20 directory PD:<CPM.MEX> you'll find MXM2403.AQM, MXM-2403.DQC, MXO-KP43.AQM, and MXO-TV13.AQM (and temporarily MXM-2403.LBR which contains all four). MXM-2403.ASM is version 1.3 of the MEX overlay for external Hayes Smartmodem 2400's and US Robotics Courier 2400's. NOTE that you will ALSO need a serial port overlay to use with this one.. Your serial port overlay should NOT have any dial routine or special code to support Smartmodems or it will conflict with this overlay. The MXO-KP43.ASM and MXO-TV13.ASM overlays included in this .LBR file are examples of "basic" overlays.. (KP43 is for most Kaypro computers and TV13 for the Televideo TS-802.) The patch process, if followed as shown in the DOC file, should work provided you find the proper overlay for your system and assemble them with ASM or MAC or RMAC or M80.. (Some overlays may not assemble properly under ASM, read the comments in the overlay...) Be sure to get the MEX114 version which supports 1k packet mode, especially important at 2400 baud.. --Keith
