[comp.dcom.modems] UST Robotics Dual Standard. How To Set It Up.??

hjanssen@cbnewse.att.com (hank janssen) (05/10/91)

I am now the proud owner of the  latest  UST  Robotics  Dual  Standard
Modem.  And  i must say in conjunction with my Amiga 2000 the transfer
speeds are impressive.

I  have  just  a  question,  what  is the best setup for the Modem and
AMiga.??? Going From HST to HST is no  problem  but  i  sometimes  get
problems loggin into  other  type  of  modems.   Such  as  the  Ventex
Pathfinder,  login at 1200 Baud is OK, 2400 Baud is scrambled and 9600
baud one does not know about the other.....

There is a program out there called amimodem that sets  up  the  modem
via  the  AMiga,  but when i run that, my modem does not recognize the
dial  tone  and  never  calls  out.  So  i  suppose the program is not
compatible  with  the  latest  of the UST robotics Dual Standard (With
V42/v42bis) 

Does  anybody  know  if the modem can talk to the Ventex Pathfinder at
such high speeds.??? Any help with the setup that makes the modem even
fast more compatible.????

Any help is apreciated.....

   The Ven-Tel Pathfinder is a Telebit Trailblazer, which speaks only PEP 
protocol, not HST or V.32.  You will not be able to connect those two modems 
at speeds above 2400 bps.  Use X7 (to disable voice connect detection), 
S9=12, S10=14.

   There are hundreds, if not thousands, of such programs; generally speaking, 
they are written by people who don't really know what they're doing.  You 
certainly have no idea what the author's modem skill level is; he might not 
know any better than you!
