Note: The protocol Straight has no error checking. It sends data directly from disk to modem. ======================================== PROGRAM INFORMATION
To load the program type: load"teleterm boot",8 and press
Now type: run and press
Make sure your modem works with the Plus/4. Not all Hayes compatibles work properly. The Avatex 1200hc works nicely. The carrier detect signal should be forced on for most modems.
In terminal mode, you can exit to the main menu by pressing HELP. In 80 columns, you can eliminate the flickering that occurs on some Plus/4s by toggling off the status line. To do this, press F1.
The modem initiation is the usual Hayes AT command, except that the two letters, AT, are left out. Use this to change default options not in the menu (for example, modem speaker, auto-answer, etc...) See your modem's users manual for more information.
To start a file transfer, remember to press the SPACEBAR after entering the filename and choosing the correct settings.
To redial, press SPACEBAR, or the terminal will do that automatically if you have both the correct modem settings and a compatible modem. In the dialing menu, press RETURN to enter 40 column terminal mode. ESCape aborts.
That is all the essential information. I have not done extensive testing, so please report any bugs either on the CBM echo or by mail. Please support the shareware concept. I would like to write more Plus/4 software, but $$$ is a big problem for college students. Look for updates (depending on contributions) on some San Francisco bbses. User validation may be required.
