At our end there's an Autodial Racal-Vadic VA3451 modem operating at 1200 baud At the other end there's a Digital Equipment Corporation DF112 modem operating at 1200 baud. Howmsoever, there ISN'T communication between the two. (Communication DOES occur when we use a Bell System Data Set 212A at this end.) If this problem is familiar to you, and you know the solution, I'd appreciate hearing from you. -- UUCP: ..decvax!seismo!elsie!ado ARPA: elsie!ado@seismo.ARPA DEC, VAX and Elsie are Digital Equipment and Borden trademarks

I am assuming you are running async. Sounds like your VA3451 wants to stay in VA3400-mode. Check your hardware options to make certain that auto identification of 212A mode is permitted. Also, check your character length, since the VA3451 will permit 8, 9, 10, and 11 bit lengths in high-speed mode, but 212A modems only work with 9 and 10 bit character lengths. 10 bits is the default setting on most 212A's. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ | Larry Lippman @ Recognition Research Corp., Clarence, New York | | UUCP {decvax,dual,rocksanne,rocksvax,watmath}!sunybcs!kitty!larry | | {rice,shell}!baylor!/ | | VOICE 716/741-9185 syr!buf!/ | | TELEX {via WUI} 69-71461 ansbak: ELGECOMCLR | | | | "Have you hugged your cat today?" | +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
