Then enable type 1 security with either AT*G1 or *G2.
On the other modem I put the same password as master (AT*HS)
Do I need other parameters on the calling modem?
If I use type 2 security, where I get prompted for password, it works, both
with and without dialback.
Btw, how do I change the delay before the dialback?

assistant: Hello All!
For a couple of days ago I have recieved my Elite 2864 analog modem. It came
with f/w 1.04 - and V.34 did not work at all! After upgrading to 1.06 V.34
works though not perfectly. Fax seems to work OK. But voice...
Zfax 4.0 that was included does not work at all... Trio Data Comm. Suite 5.0
- no way... Answer/2 and AM4PM kan playback, but not record messages...
Has anybody got voice working or it is just broken and we have to wait untill
ZyXEL will get it working in future firmware releases?

I run FD2.20 with ZFAX 4.0 and have had ONE (only 1) failed fax receipt
out of the 3 dozen faxes received to date (about one month since Elite
was installed).  Same init string and configurations as used with
ZyXel 1496b and ZFAX 3.xx.  In my experience... ZFAX 4.0 works GREAT
"in adaptive answer mode when executed from a mailer fax connect."
Perhaps the problem lies with your specific software or your specific

writting about in it anywhere.
    I will play around with this possibility also until I can get it to
receive a FAX from InterMail again like I did with my U-1496 S+
    I need to talk to InterMail about incorporating the internal FAX receive
feature also. :-)

Same here. Rom 1.06 gives 28k8 connects, but cps rate will never reach

Haven't tested the fax yet.
ZFAX 4.01 works okay with voice overhere. But I guess after two years of
using ZFAX with my U1496E+ I'm used to getting it to work.
Still one problem; the Elite hangs after data-shelling to RA.
RA works fine, but shelling back to ZFAX makes to modem go "DOES NOT RESPOND"
Same setup worked 100% with ZFAX 3.12 and the U1496E+ with rom 6.11a
Have you tried disconnecting anything else from your phoneline? Try with only
the Elite connected en see if it works.
Plugging your phone into the PHONE-IN on the Elite works overhere with
recording messages via your phone handset.

Answering a msg of <Friday October 13 1995>, from Mike Poston to Mark Ott:
    Mike I would like to see a screen capture of your InterMail configuration
setup for "Mailer -> External mail"  along with your "Modem -> Advanced setup
    Is not Intermail to create a DOSESS.BAT that passes the connection
information from the incoming FAX to a EXESESS.BAT? Check your InterMail book
on page 19 - 25 for External Mail Sessions for my reference on DOSESS.BAT
    Please also post your DOSESS.BAT and EXESESS.BAT
P.S.  I just FTPed to ZyXEL.COM and obtained ZFAX 4.01E
Regards,
Mark
