Write your reply.

assistant: I was not quite sure what you were talking about, but it looked like
adaptive answering stuff, and how the Supra detects incoming callers as
fax or data.
It behaves in two distinct ways when +FAA=1
Method 1.  S192=2 (default)
1. Pick up the phone
2. Listen for a few seconds--if hear CNG tone, report "FAX"
3. If not CNG tone heard, then attempt to connect as data call
4. If data connection fails, report "NO CARRIER"
Method 2.  S192=0 (perfered way)
1. Pick up the phone
2. Listen for a few seconds--if hear CNG tone, report "FAX"
3. If CNG tone heard, then attempt to connect as data call
4. If data connection fails, report "FAX"
Notice the only difference in the two methods is step #4.
Since I rely heavily on faxes, I always keep S192=0 on my Supra.  That way,
even fax machines that don't send out CNG tones right away will be able to
send me faxes.
Now, some people prefer the default.  Why?  Well, setting S192=0, while
much better for fax reliability, can also cause "FAX" to be spit out my
the modem even if a fax machine is not calling.  (i.e., call your BBS from
your voice line, keeping the MUTE button pressed down, and you'll see
"FAX" pop up on the screen after about 10 seconds.)
These "false" FAX connects drive some people insane.  ALL DATA CALLS WILL
CONTINUE TO FUNCTION NORMALLY.
Myself, I could care less about "false" fax calls.  All I know is that I
want to receive all my real fax calls no matter what, so I use S192=0

With a Supra, you can set S192=0 and that way it will accept fax callers

still an analog signal, instead of a digital signal, it should be working
still.

Date: 06 Jun 96  17:17:04  Subject: Fax Problem.....
What about your sender?  As you're the receiver, how does your sender is
trying to send faxes?  I also had lots of problem trying to make FrontDoor to
answer faxes and I found the fact on how to make it answer properly.
The fact is depend on the sender.  If the sender is using Fax Machine (not
ax
Modem), then the sender should try pressing "Send" or maybe "Start Fax" right
after dial.  If the sender waits for your modem to answer, then that'll be
oo
late because most of the time, even you have "+FAA=1" set to your answer,
it'll answer as Data answer and not Fax answer.
I'm not quite sure about Fax Modem to Fax Modem because I haven't tried it
so..  Well, if this gonna give you any help, try it.

assistant: It starts to upload and then just errors out. I tried no less than 5
times and then for the heck of it I put a "rem" in front of my BNU line
in my config.sys and it worked great then. I tried it Telix and from the
term in Intermail, neither worked till I dumped BNU. I had d/led a
previous flasher from your board and it would upload about half then it
would error out, I thought it was corrupt so I just waited to get a
newer one. I guess it just don't like BNU.
