1) INTRODUCTION

Although a few years old and not marketed agressively anymore, the NATSEMI
TYIN2000 DSP FAX/DATA/VOICE modem is still considered one of the best modems
(as far as sound quality and RELIABILITY goes) available at a reasonable cost
for FAX and Voice , by users and developers alike.  It's main defficiencies are
limited functionality of the bundled S/W (no "flashy features") and low DATA
transfer speeds (only 2400bps), But for a low cost, good sounding and reliable
PC based Voicemail/FAX system, the TYIN is a real gem.  Due to it's on board
DSP, CPU requirements are low and even a 386-SX/25 is sufficient (good use for
all those 386-SX's lying around...In fact that's what we're using).  Most
popular modems today require at least a 486 CPU due to heavy PC PC bandwidth
required.

To overcome the low DATA throughput, NATSEMI later released the TYIN4000 Pro
(Dual DSP's, 14.4kbps DATA, improved compression and many other improved
features).  The bundled S/W features remained the same, though.

Insufficient marketting and 3rd party support eventually killed the product,
although quite a few units were sold.  Many TYIN users are still hanging on to
these modems thanks to their ROCK SOLID operation and advanced VOICE and FAX
capabilities.  These units are still available low cost from various computer
stores (sometimes under other brand names).

2) WHAT IS WAV2PCM?

To overcome some of the bundled S/W limitations, Innovative Technologies has
developed a few utilities that enhance the TYIN2000 system significantly.

WAV2PCM is a utility enabling using any WAV editor program (and some are quite
powerful) for creating your custom professional OGM (Out-Going Message) and
importing it into any TYIN2000 mailbox OGM.  With this utility, creating a
OGM with advanced features such as these is a snap:

1.	
Unlimited OGM length.
2.  Possibility of adding high quality music from various sources (such as
    CD-AUDIO) without loss of quality.  
3.  Possibility of inserting absolute silence (impossible to do with the basic
    product due to the inherent AGC - Automatic Gain Control - which amplifies
    background noise during silence to an audible level).  
4.  Addition of special effects (echo, voice change, etc.).  
5.  No Analaog noise or distrortion added due to editing process and transfer
    to the TYIN2000 system.
6.  Editing (cutting and pasting) available voice sequences as needed for
    specific mailboxes (you can easily create a "library" of OGM's for various
    purposes).

In addition, WAV2PCM enables customizing of the TYIN2000 system voice
announcements to ANY LANGUAGE.  

WAV2PCM is implemented for DOS execution (either native DOS or within WINDOWS
DOS command prompt), and thus is compatible with both DOS and WINDOWS. 
Compatibility with WINDOWS95 has not been tested yet.

3) ABOUT THE DEMO

The version of WAV2PCM included in this distribution is a DEMO call WV2PCM_D. 
The demo is free to use for 30 days.  After that, if you find it useful, you
are required to register.  The DEMO version includes all features of the
registered version of WAV2PCM except for unlimited OGM length: The demo is
limited to 5 seconds of OGM.  You may distribute the demo freely as long as the
complete distribution is left intact (WV2PCM_D.ZIP). It may be freely uploaded
to BBS's, WWW and FTP sites, etc.  Commercial shareware distribution is
permitted so long as no fee is charged for the software itself, only for the
media and labor involved in the distribution.  The distribution method should
state explicitaly that cost of distribution does not grant any rights to the
software.  Only official registration with Innovative Technologies will grant
users the license to use the demo S/W beyond the 30 day evaluation period
(although registered users will probably prefer to use WAV2PCM due to it's
enhanced features).

4) RUNNING THE DEMO

Simply run WV2PCM_D.EXE at the DOS command prompt.  You will get online help
which you can follow (by issuing WV2PCM_D /help).

5) REGISTRATION

The WAV2PCM registration fee is 30 U.S.  Dollars plus postage and handling. 
Registration entitles you to use WAV2PCM on a single machine per registration. 
You may backup your copy as much as you feel adequate.  You MAY NOT distribute
your registered copy for ANY purpose (This is what the demo is for). 
Additional registrations will receive discounted prices.  Site licences will
also receive special discounts.  If you wish to include WAV2PCM with your
distribution S/W, you must license it from Innovative Technologies.  In
addition, registered users will qualify for discounted prices for future
product releases from Innovative Technologies.  For registration, please fill
the attached registration form at the end of this document and select one of
the following options:

  a. Credit cards: We accept VISA, Master Charge and American Express.  FAX
     your registration form with credit card details to: FAX#: 00972-3-9678124

  b. Cash: (At your own risk. Send it registered if you must use this method):
     MAIL: Innovative Technologies, P.O.B 2272, Rishon Le-Zion, ISRAEL, 75121.
     It is a good idea to check with us by email if you do not receive your

     options.  For special cases, wire transfer to our account can be
     coordinated.

6) DELIVERY

   a. The most convenient method is via email.  Upon clearing your
      registration (depending on the method you have chosen), we will deliver a
      compressed and UU-ENCODED file containing your registered version of
      WAV2PCM embedded in an email message to you.  This is also the least
      expensive method of delivery (in terms of postage and handling charges). 
      You will need to UU-DECODE and uncompress it.

   b. If you don't have an email account or access to one (quite unlikely
      nowadays), we can mail WAV2PCM to you (although we prefer the email
      option). Postage and handling are 10$.

7) DISCLAIMER

As with all S/W, you should make backups of any important information residing
on your PC before using WAV2PCM, and regularily thereafter.  Innovative
Technologies cannot assume any responsibility for any damages, expressed or
implied, incurred by you or by any other party, either accidentally or
intentionally through the use of this software. Use the S/W at your own risk.
Having said that, we would like to say that we have tested WAV2PCM extensively
on PC platforms ranging from 386-SX/25 to Pentium-100 with no problems.  We
have a high level of confidense in proper functionality of our products and are
actually using them in-house for our own benefit.

8) FEEDBACK AND BUG REPORTS

Feedback and Bug reports are mandatory for bug fixes and improvements of our
products.  User requests for new features or other tools also affect scheduling
and priorities of future products.  Please feel free to inform us about any
suspected bugs as well as your suggestions via email (preferably) or FAX.

9) TRADEMARKS

All registered trademarks mentioned are registered trademarks of their
respective holders.

10) FUTURE PRODUCTS:  

Other utilities are under development.
Future product releases will include export of TYIN2000 PCM (outgoing messages)
and export/import of PC4 (incoming messages) formats to WAV or other popular
formats (useful for editing or archiving an available OGM or ICM to your
needs).
