This was post on comp.sys.amiga.... I recently hooked up two amigas together via null modem, normal chatting works fine... even up to 40some K baud... but when I try to transfer a file using ZMODEM in JR-Comm, it says it lost it's carrier, could this be because this is an Asynchronous type handshake? Any help would be appreciated... -Dino Khoe -- ============================================================================= Dr. of Moshology | | | / \ /\ |/ Any system dksnsr@nmtsun.nmt.edu | |---||____|| |\ can be New Mexico Tech Computer Science | | || | \/ | \ cracked...

You could try strapping the RS232C input signal "CD" (Carrier Detect - pin 8) to any active output signal, such as "DTR" (Data Terminal Ready - pin 20), through a 1K resistor so as to avoid blowing something. You may need to do the same thing at both ends of the link. Big Disclaimers: I havn't tried this myself. No warranties. Don't try it unless you are comfortable with basic electronics repair. Don't do it with the power on. ---------- John Ellson ellson@ontap.stsusa.com Siemens Transmission Systems, Phoenix
