any program which runs on your Macintosh. At the same time it allows automatic fax receiving. This program includes powerful line manager software which makes sure fax software does not interfere with other programs using the serial ports. If the modem is turned off when you start your Macintosh with the line manager activated, the computer may seem to freeze for a few minutes. During this time the line manager software tries to locate and to set up the modem. Turn on your modem before you start your Macintosh to avoid this delay. MaxFax is another fax software for Macintosh computers. Drivers are available which allow use of the serial ports at speeds up to 230.4 Kbps. These drivers are currently available for Power Macs and AV Macs only. Helpful Hints for UNIX-Based Computers Serial Cable Please consult the documentation that came with your workstation to find the part number of or information on how to make a serial cable for your workstation. The cable should be a hardware-handshaking type. Please refer to Chapter 12 Connector Pinouts for a complete list of signals provided for the modem's serial port. Basic Modem Settings for UNIX Unix environments usually don't like modem responses or echoing of commands. Therefore you should set ATE0Q1. Depending on your Unix setup, the cable and software used, you may have to disable carrier detection using AT&C0. Basic Modem Operation 25
