[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Digital Scholar Modem

mwm@raybed2.msd.ray.com (mwm) (11/14/90)

    Hope someone can help me,  I have a Digital Scholar (1200/2400) modem.
I want to know if it is Hayes compatible.  I want to use it on my p.c.
to connect to some b. boards.  Any tips would be appreciated.  
    Please direct follow-ups to comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.

   Try this:  connect it to your PC.  Run some terminal software.  Issue
some Hayes commands (try ATE1Q0V1X4<return>AT<return).  See if you get
anything back (the above should return an OK after the AT; what it returns,
if anything, after the first part depends on its settings).

   This would be easier to do if you had set your Followup-To line to
point to this group, instead of

$Followup-To: comp.protocols.ibm

   Hayes, BTW, has nothing to do with IBM.

The Scholar could not be more different in its command set from Hayes
if it tried.  It is a good modem, but it absolutely does *not* have any
'Hayes' compatibility whatever.  You'll need the manual.

The old "Scholar" modem is *not* Hayes-compatible.  The newer "Scholar Plus"
*is* Hayes-compatible.
