Hello, I realize that this has been hashed over before, but now *I* need to know the answer! Any help you could give would be appreciated. I have a TB+ on a Plexus P-95 that is getting about 760cps throughput with HDB uucp. I'd like to be getting in the 1200-1400 range. The load on the system is very light, so I'm fairly sure that the setup of the modem is at fault. Here is my Systems file entry: xxxxxx Any ACUTB 19200 ####### ogin:--ogin: yyyyy sword: zzz xxxxxx Any ACU24 19200 ####### ogin:--ogin: yyyyy sword: zzz Here's my Devices file: ACU24 tty0 - 19200 tb2400 ACUTB tty0 - 19200 tbfast And here's my Dialers file: tbfast =W-, "" ATZ OK ATS50=255S7=60S111=30X3DTW\T CONNECT\sFAST tb2400 =W-, "" ATZ OK ATS50=3S7=60S111=30X3DTW\T CONNECT\s2400 Obviously, I'm locking the interface at 19200 and manually setting the registers for non-PEP transfers.

The load on the system is very light, so Does the Plexus support hardware flow control? Can the Plexus support 19200 without the loss of characters? -- Larry Snyder, NSTAR Public Access Unix 219-289-0282 (HST/PEP/V.32/v.42bis) regional UUCP mapping coordinator {larry@nstar.rn.com, ..!uunet!nstar!larry, larry%nstar@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu}

Yup, quite well, on the ACP. >Can the Plexus support 19200 without the loss of characters? Yup, in fact I ran tb+'s on P/60 (ICP, a slower version) at 19200 quite well, and even local tubes at 38400. Some things to consider... 1. Make sure that uucp is set to do rts/cts flow control (this will take a shell script wrapper, as by default it doesn't) (actually, due to the short block size and the large buffers available in the ACP, and the buffers in the modems, it works ok anyway) Run at 19200 (note at 19200, the ACP only does about 1300-1400 cps anyway (the characters are not quite back to back sometimes) Run only a couple of these per ACP and mix other loads on each ACP. (An acp can do up to 16 ports) Make sure you are running patch 4 on the acp's to get the best throughput (1.7 patch 4 or 1.8, no patches needed) -- ===================================================================== Sydney S.
