zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzip Is there any way that I can send commands to the modem (Hayes "AT" command set) using Crosstalk XVI without using the DPREFIX, DSUFFIX or APREFIX commands. More specificaly, I want to explicitly tell the modem to hang up ("ATH0"). Would it be possible to get this attached to the "BYE" command so that it would hang up the phone when it was issued. Thanx, Mike Bruno

Regarding Crosstalk XVI, The only way I was able to get the modem to hang up was by using the hardware handshake lines provided for this purpose. DTR DSR etc. Another way to close the connection is to use the modem's escape sequence, then issue the ATH0 command. This could be done by programming a function key to do all the work. An example is how I would do the disconnect with my Volksmodem 1200. ^F10: ~+++~ATH0| That is, Ctrl-F10 echos < 2 sec. pause, +++, 2 sec. pause, ATH0, CR >. (I'm not sure if the 2 second pause really works in this case). Good luck.... -- Tim Margeson (206)253-5240 PO Box 3500 d/s C1-937 @@ 'Who said that?'

I have ran into a situtation once that the number I need to "auto-dial" was too long (because of security codes to get a trunk line). > Would it be possible to get this attached > to the "BYE" command so that it would hang up the phone when it was > issued. Don't think you can do that easily. Maybe via a SCRIPT file? I'm not sure and don't have the manual handy. ...
