When using the Radio Shack RS232 pack on OS-9 with their ACIAPAK driver (usually as /T2), the Pak MUST be plugged into Slot ONE (nearest you) of the Shack's Multi-Pak box. Slots 2 & 3 won't talk to a modem. Jeff Rhodes & I verified this with the Xcom9 terminal program (good stuff); it may apply to the ACIAPAK in general. So, if you're having trouble, check this 1st. In return, could someone please tell me how to change Buad rates on the Pack? I boot up with baud=3 (1200 Baud) but when I do "xmode /t2 baud=1" to get 300 Baud, when I restart Xcom9 I still have 1200 out of the Pak. Must I re-init the Pak somehow? thank, mike k

I think you've mixed up the xmode and tmode commands. Xmode is for making permanent changes, while tmode is to make changes for the current session. To change speeds while you're working use tmode. If you want to change the default speed, then use xmode and 'cobbler' a new disk. After 'cobbler'ing, use verify u <os9boot >temp del os9boot copy temp os9boot If you are using standard RS OS-9 disks then this much will do it. -- James Omura, Barrister & Solicitor, Toronto ihnp4!utzoo!lsuc!jimomura Byte Information eXchange: jimomura Compuserve: 72205,541 MTS at WU: GKL6
