[comp.unix.xenix] dialHA96 driver for Xenix

perry@bluemtn.uucp (Perry Minyard (3MTA3)) (01/14/90)

I wish we had a Telebit modem, but we dont.  We have a Hayes 9600 V-series
modem.   Has anyone heard of, written, etc any drivers for this?

I've tried to user a dialer entry in the Dialers file, but it doesnt seem
to work as well as dialHA24.c

I've even gone into the dialha24.c and modified it to set the port
to 9600 baud, but I think I'm using the wrong compile options to compile it.

If I take dialha24.c, and recompile it with the standard "cc" default options,
the size of the compiled file is different than the pre-compiled supplied
dialHA24 that came with the Xenix OS.... So I guess I'm doing something wrong.

Has anybody else had similar problems or an answer?

Thanks,
Perry Minyard

Hi Perry.  I have a pair of Hayes V-Series here on nstar and they
work just dandy under 386/ix producing transfers of around 920 cps. 

I have found that locking the modems at 9600 and using one gettydef
entry works best, along with XON/XOFF handshaking.   For some reason,
the modems don't seem to want to work correctly at 19.2kbaud.
