Communicating with the Courier
After you've connected the Courier to a serial port and powered
the Courier on, you need to make sure that your computer can
send commands to the Courier. Once you're sure that your
computer can communicate with the Courier, you're ready to
start making or taking calls!
The methods of verifying communication with a modem vary
depending on the operating system your computer uses.
Windows 95
Windows 3.x
Windows NT RAS
DOS
This chapter provides advice about how to get many popular
operating systems to communicate with the Courier. The last
section, Testing the Courier, explains how to verify that your
Courier and software are working together correctly.
Windows 95
The first time you start Windows 95 after you've installed the
Courier, Windows 95 will auto-detect the Courier. Make sure
the Courier is powered on when you start Windows 95.
Windows 95 has built-in support for Couriers, but since the
Courier has been updated since the release of Windows 95, you
need to supply Windows 95 with an updated INF file so it can
properly identify your Courier. The latest INF file is always
available from our BBS and our ftp site.
