USING THE HAYES V-SERIES SMARTMODEM 2400
----------------------------------------


THIS INFORMATION APPLIES ONLY TO TBBS VERSION 2.1


The Hayes V-Series Smartmodem 2400 is an enhanced 2400 bps modem with state of 
the art error correction and data compression standards.  The modem supports 
all major data rates to 2400 bps, and includes both MNP and V.42/V.42bis.  It 
features full downshifting to lower speeds, while automatically using a high 
DTE rate when connected at high speeds using data compression. 

To install the V-Series 2400 for full operation with TBBS Version 2.1, use the
following installation procedure: 

                    CEDIT Port/Modem Options Settings

In CEDIT use the following settings:

MODEM:
   Type = 4
   INIT = ATE0Q0X1V0M0 S0=1 S2=255 S7=35

PORT:
   I/F = Automatic
   RTS/CTS = Y
   Issue ATZ Before INIT = Y
   The other 3 settings = N

                        MODEMSET Pre-Conditioning

Use the MODEMSET program to "pre-condition" the modem as follows:

AT&F
AT&C1&D2 S36=5 &W

NOTE:  THIS STEP IS ESSENTIAL!  The modem will NOT operate properly with
TBBS if you do not pre-condition it exactly as indicated!



                                  Notes

1.   This setup allows full operation of the modem in all modes possi-
     ble.  

2.   By following this Tech Note, the V-Series 2400 is driven at a
     maximum DTE rate of 9,600 bps.  The modem will automatically
     determine and report proper connect rates for both DTE (software to
     modem) and DCE (modem to modem) as appropriate for a given connec-
     tion.
3.   Our testing indicates that these settings produce reliable opera-
     tion in all modes at all baud rates with TBBS 2.1S, 2.1M[16] or
     2.1M[32].
