#XPR,BT,Supra…HELP!
Hi,
I've written about this before but the advice received hasn't helped
much, therefore I'll try once again. 8)
I have a vanilla Amiga 2000 (68000), GVP autobooting HD, 2058 RAM
expansion card(fully populated), WB 2.04 ROM w/software and a brand new
SupraFAXModem V.32 (supports v.42bis). The latter is the problem.
I use BackTalk as my term program and am having total failure using the
xprzmodem protocol. I have RTS/CTS set in prefs with the speed set to
9600(I also tried the 2 higher settings), XON/XOFF is set to off, 8N1 is
set, text gadget filter is off. BackTalk has a mostly default setup in
BT.cfg(screen colors are different), the modem init. string is 'AT
&F2'(modem defaults). Whenever I try to use xprzmodem(also set to the
protocols defaults) I get 'error bad CRC','bad Header','garbage detected in
header'…this repeats until the default error count(10) terminates the D/L
then 2 screens of total garbage ensues. I have tried connecting in 'normal'
mode (no error correction/no compression) to forcing it attempt v.42bis or
die modes. Nothing seems to work and all produce the same results. I have
also checked my cable (it's fine). Xprquickb works fine as do the other
protocols except zmodem. I have reD/L'd it to ensure it isn't
corrupted…same results. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff P.S. The modem has been checked
and is performing to specs.
