File Creation: Tuesday, February 19, 2000 Updated: Monday, October 07, 2002 Version: 2.2 File Name: SCO-Readme.txt The file called 'SCO-Modems.tar' contains modem definitions for our most popular 56K v.90 modems and ISI Cards. Note: DO NOT USE THE DOS COPY FROM A FLOPPY DISKETTE!! It will shorten the filenames and may corrupt data. The follwing examples use the Graphical User Interface "X Windows". Look for our v.92 modem Dialers coming soon. For now, a similar Device Dialer will work fine as the sameinit strings are generally used. Example: MT5634ZPX-ISA, MT5634ZPX-PCI and the MT5634ZPX-PCI V92 use the same init string and can use the same Dialer! Instructions for OpenServer 5.x.x ..: 1: Change to a temporary folder such as "mytemp" Use "# mkdir /mytemp". 2: Copy the file SCO-Modems.tar to "mytemp". Use "#cp SCO-Modems.tar /mytemp" 3: Run the command 'tar xvf SCO-Modems.tar' from "mytemp". It will create the file Detect and the directories DBase and default. 4: Back up these files on the SCO Server: /usr/lib/uucp/ Detect /usr/lib/uucp/DBase/ MultiTech_Systems /usr/lib/uucp/default/ Multi* 5: Copy and Paste the files above to their respective places using your favorite text editor. The file Detect goes in 'usr/lib/uucp/'. The file in directory DBase goes in 'usr/lib/uucp/DBase/'. The files in directory default go in 'usr/lib/uucp/default/'. 6: Use SCO OpenServer 5's ModemManager to install the modems. A binary Dialer will be built from this. 6.1) Load SCO Administration from the desktop. 6.2) Click on Networks --> Modem Manager --> Modem --> Add --> Manual. 6.3) You should now be in the "Modem Configuration" window. 6.3.1) Choose MultiTech Systems in the Modem Vendor Window. 6.3.2) Choose your model in the Modem Model Window. 6.3.3) Choose the port you are using in Modem Port. 6.3.4) Select Configure Port. 6.3.4.1) Set Port Type so the port and Modem appear (default). 6.3.4.2) Set Answer to Yes or No 6.3.4.3) Speed can be left at 38400. 7) Verify binary Dialer is placed in usr/lib/uucp/. 7.1) CD to /usr/lib/uucp/. 7.2) Run the command "ls Multi* " [Don't type the quotes]. 7.3) You should see the Dialer, MultiTech_MT5600DSVD as an example. 8) Verify Device file. 8.1) CD to /usr/lib/uucp/ 8.2) Run the command "cat Devices | more ". [Don't type the quotes]. 8.2.1)Scroll down and you should see similar entries depending on your choices in section 6: Direct tty2A - 38400 direct (You may have to add this). ACU tty2A - 38400 MultiTech_MT5600DSVD 9)Test Port. 9.1) Run the command " disable tty2A " [Don't type the quotes]. 9.1.1)Run the command " cu -l tty2A " [Don't type the quotes]. 9.1.2) You should get a "Connected" message". 9.1.3) Type " atii1i2i3 " [Don't type the quotes]. You should get some modem information back on the screen. 9.1.4) Type in " ~. " to get back to command prompt. Again, [Don't type the quotes]. UnixWare 7 Notes: The UnixWare 7 directions include UnixWare 7.x.x and OpenUNIX 8.0.0. OpenUNIX 8.0.0 and UnixWare 7.1.3 are UnixWare with a Linux Kernel Personality (LKP). UnixWare 7.1.3 at this writing is in Beta at SCO Group / Caldera. It is here as an example only. In UnixWare 7.1.3, skip to section 6 below, as all current modems up to and including our most popular v.90 modems are already installed. Look for our v.92 modem Dialers coming soon. Instruction for UnixWare 7 ..: 1: Change to a temporary folder such as "mytemp" Use "# mkdir /mytemp". 2: Copy the file SCO-Modems.tar to "mytemp". Use "#cp SCO-Modems.tar /mytemp" 3: Run the command 'tar xvf SCO-Modems.tar' from "mytemp". It will create the file Detect and the directories DBase and default. 4: Back up these files on the SCO Server: /etc/uucp/ Detect /etc/uucp/DBase/ MultiTech_Systems /etc/uucp/default/ Multi* 5: Copy and Paste the files above to their respective places using your favorite text editor. The tar file creates the following: Folder 'DBase' with MultiTech_Systems, folder 'default' with the modem definition files and the file detect. The file 'Detect' goes in '/etc/uucp/'. The files in directory DBase goes in '/etc/uucp/DBase/'. The files in directory default go in '/etc/uucp/default/'. 6: Use SCO UnixWare 7's ModemManager to install the modems. A binary Dialer will be built from this. It will also automatically add the entry to sacadm and pmadm if the modem is installed on a standard com port. A reboot may be necessary after copying the files. In UnixWare 7.1.3, your Direct and ACU entries are automatically entered in the Devices file. 6.1) Load SCO Admin from the task bar. 6.2) Click on Hardware --> Modem Manager --> Modem --> Add --> Manual. 6.3) You should now be in the "Modem Configuration" window. 6.3.1) Choose MultiTech Systems in the Modem Vendor Window. 6.3.2) Choose your model in the Modem Model Window. 6.3.3) Choose the port you are using in Modem Port. 6.3.4) Select Configure Port. 6.3.4.1) Set Port Type so the port and Modem appear (default). 6.3.4.2) Set Configure Port to what you need. Incoming only, outgoing only or Both. 6.3.4.3) Speed can be left at Auto. 7) Verify binary Dialer is placed in /etc/uucp. 7.1) CD to /etc/uucp. 7.2) Run the command "ls Multi* " [Don't type the quotes]. 7.3) You should see the Dialer, MultiTech_MT5600DSVD as an example. 8) Verify Device file. 8.1) CD to /etc/uucp 8.2) Run the command "cat Devices | more ". [Don't type the quotes]. 8.2.1)Scroll down and you should see similar entries depending on your choices in section 6: Direct term/01m,M - Any direct ACU term/01m,M - MultiTech_MT5600DSVD 9)Test Port. 9.1) Run the command " cu -l /dev/term/01m " [Don't type the quotes]. 9.1.1) You should get a "Connected" message". 9.1.2) Type " atii1i2i3 " [Don't type the quotes]. You should get some modem information back on the screen. 9.1.3) Type in " ~. " to get back to command prompt. Again, [Don't type the quotes].
