Hayes Modem Tool
The Hayes Modem Tool is a connection tool, for use with the Macintosh
Communications Toolbox, that provides easy and complete access to the
advanced features of Hayes modems. Settings provided by the tool are
divided into five functional areas, accessible through a scrolling list of
panels. Each area controls some aspect of the modem or the connection.
Written to the specifications of the Macintosh Communications Toolbox, the
Hayes Modem Tool can be used without modification by any program which
supports the Macintosh Communications Toolbox. The Hayes Modem Tool has
been designed for use with Hayes modems so that Hayes modem users can take
full advantage of their modems through applications supporting the
Macintosh Communications Toolbox.
FUNCTIONALITY
The five settings groups provided by the Hayes Modem Tool are:
Connection Settings - These control general aspects of the connection to
be made, and include such settings as dial or answer, phone number to be
dialed, number of dialing attempts, and number of rings after which to
answer.
Modem Settings - These provide a simple means of configuring your Hayes
modem. Users can make maximum use of advanced modem features without
learning specific AT Commands. The Hayes Modem Tool translates screen
selections into the appropriate commands of the Hayes Standard
AT Command Set and issues them to the modem automatically. Settings
include modem speaker setting and volume, modem timing parameters, and
line monitoring options.
Port Settings - These control aspects of the connection to be made such
as transmission speed, flow control, character format, and port selection.
The Hayes Modem Tool communicates with any device which registers itself
with the Macintosh Communications Toolbox, including the internal Hayes
Smartmodem 2400M and Hayes V-series Smartmodem 2400M.
When using a Hayes modem, the maximum setting automatically configures
the modem for the highest possible transmission speed supported by the
connection. Port speed can also be limited to a specified rate for use
over fixed-speed connections.
V-series Settings - The Hayes Modem Tool fully supports the features of
V-series system products, including flow control, CCITT V.42 and V.42bis,
and CCITT X.32 (Dial X.25) single session. A user can easily configure
the modem for choice of error-control and compression features, and need
not worry about modem speed or flow control settings. Hayes modem
products are automatically identified and the maximum supported speed is
used for communication, including 38.4 Kbps for V-series ULTRA Smartmodem
9600 products.
Setup Strings - For those settings which are not directly supported by
the Hayes Modem Tool, use the Setup Strings feature to issue additional
commands to your modem. AT Commands of your choice are issued
automatically before making a connection or after ending one. Setup
Strings can also be used with non-Hayes modems to access features
implemented using commands not found in the Hayes Standard AT Command Set.
SPECIFICATIONS
Hayes Modem Tool - Requires use of the Macintosh Communications Toolbox
(Apple System Software 6.0.4 or later in requirement of the Macintosh
Communications Toolbox), and a program which supports the use of
Connection Tools.
