Does anyone know what must be done in order to get MacTerminal(2.1)
to autodial a non-apple modem. I have a NEC 2420/30 which the AutoLOG
DA talks to (in Macterminal or Versaterm) just fine. The problem
occurs when I try to use MacTerminal's own Phone menu to dial --
it says "no modem attached". Qdial also refuses to work with
the NEC modem but works fine with the apple1200 modem. I'm using
a purchased cable so I haven't provided the specifics on that.
Any suggestions as to dipswitch or other changes which might help
would be appreciated. It should be noted that one person at NEC
support advised me that I should just set the forced TR dipswitch.
That doesn't do it.

No suggestions but similar data for some wise person who can make a diagnoses. When I dial on my Rixon R212A at 1200 or 300 baud from MacTerminal, in Hayes emulation mode or not, it gets 'line dead'. It doesn't have any problems when run from uw or Freeterm. Is one or the other being sloppy in initializing the serial interface, and can something be patched? -- Oliver Steele ...!{decfax,ihnp4}!mcnc!unc!steele steele%unc@csnet-relay.csnet "If a tree dies, plant another in its place." -- Linnaeus
