    This is really a shot in the dark, but I have a Novation SmartCat modem
that I bought about 6 years ago and lost the manual to it 5 years ago.  Never
was a problem till last year, because I knew how to do the important things 
like set the baud rate and dial.  Last year, however, I started calling our
VAX and discovered that my modem seemed to be changing the parity and the VAX
didn't like that at all.  After starting at %A and working towards %Z, I found
the command to make it compatable with our VAX to be "%F 3".  God only know 
what that stands for.  Now Text works just fine, but Kermit keeps timing out
with my modem, but not with a friend's, and I can't get it to communicate with
our NAS mainframe.  I'm just short of saying the hell with it and buying a new
modem, but I figured I'd try this first.  If by any chance someone out there
has a manual for it, could you please email me a list of the commands and the
DIP switch settings(I've been afraid to even touch them).

Thank you,
