[comp.dcom.modems] Avatex 1200: Life after death?

jsaker@zeus.unomaha.edu (Jamie Saker -- Vice President, UNO ACE) (05/20/91)

I picked up an Avatex 1200 headed for the dumpster this evening at work
and thought I could see if I couldn't find a use for it at home -- 
it apparently works (however, it's pin settings are all goofy since it
had to work with a really unusual setup). It powers up, but there is
no response at the keyboard (AT commands) with a good terminal and
good cable.

Would anybody happen to know the proper dip switch settings (say, to hook 
up with a dumb VT220 terminal - the same settings as most micros) for the 
Avatex 1200?

Many thanks in advance!

Call their tech support line @ 1-800-4AVATEX (no joke....). I was 
wondering - does AVATEX even still exist?
