Hi, I have an old Rixon 1200/300 baud modem here, and a question, how do I make it dial :-). I've tried the AT command set, with no success. Does anyone know the command set for this modem? (modem details to follow). Any pointers would be appreciated, Thanks. RIXON TA212A P/N 905-5123-001 Series 2 Front looks like, TR MR SD RD MC TM HS, with 5 buttons AL, ST, RDL, HS, TK/DA Back looks like, PROG/FLL, PERM, PHONE Anyone know if Rixon still makes modems.. and their address? Once again, thanks for any help. -- erin@ug.cs.dal.ca Erin MacNeil

Just dial the number on the phone, and press the on-line switch for about 3/4 second. I assume you have an M13F cable and appropriately wired dataphone, or the single-line phone interface cable that came with the modem. If you need to wire one yourself, I believe that pin 7 is Tip, 8 is Ring, and 5 and 15 get a N.O. momentary contact pushbutton wired between them, but that's from memory and may not be correct. -- Mike Berger Department of Statistics, University of Illinois AT&TNET 217-244-6067 Internet berger@atropa.stat.uiuc.edu
