The Telebit codes are different from the Hayes 9600 codes. I was successful in getting it to work by initializing with X0 (instead of X4) which forces only very basic return codes. I then set all of the speed codes to 0 except 19200 Reliable, which I set to the Connect code (1). This was necessary because of the RRING (52) code that the Telebit generates while connecting - which caused your second problem below. Even when I was able to set the 19200 REL code to 61 (the Telebit FAST/KERM code), the connection still failed as you described below. The only way to supress the RRING code is to use X0 (I would prefer to use X3). I also added the S111=10 to the init string to cause the telebit to do fast Kermit xfers. >2.)

Looks like the Wincomm people need to add the ability to ignore return codes (like the RRING 52) during the connection process. Anyway, I got the basics working and was successful at downloading a file using Kermit. Good Luck. Terry
