                         Document No.: 2075

Subject: Error Message: "Timeout Waiting for POKE Acknowledgement"

Situation:
==========
The message "Timeout Waiting for POKE Acknowledgement" appears when 
trying to access a phonebook from a Personal Information Manager (PIM) 
application, such as Polaris PackRat or Commence.

This problem occurs with releases of WinFax PRO 3.0 dated April 21, 1993 
or later. With these releases of the software, WinFax "times out" in 
15 seconds if the PIM phonebook is not loaded and available.

Solution:
=========
Update your WinFax PRO 3.0 installation with the following maintenance
release patch:

      WFX3PR.ZIP   Size: 74,151 bytes   Creation Date: 6/4/93

The patch changes the WinFax timeout setting to 120 seconds, to allow for 
loading of larger PIM phonebook databases.

You can download the patch from one of two sources:

Caution:   This patch can only be applied to WinFax PRO 3.0 versions 
           dated April 21, 1993 or later. To determine the release date 
           of your version, pull down the Help menu in WinFax and select 
           About. If you have an earlier version of WinFax PRO 3.0,
