Once again, I have an Everex Evercomm 942/II 2400 baud internal modem that I am running on my PS/2 Model 50Z under DOS 4.00. My basic intention is to send a command to the modem to turn off auto-answer. The command should be ATS0=0 (with AT&W and AT&F) and it works in Procomm or Bitcom, but I want to send it *myself*. Because of the new PS/2 Microchannel Architecture there are no DIP switches. The modem is physically in the middle slot (of 3). I consider this to be COM2 in general. In the setup program it is called Serial_2. Is this right? When I try to do an echo or copy to the port with either a file or just text. I recieve an Write fault error on the COMx. I get the same error for COM1. According to other errors, the COM3 ( COM4->8, which are defined by the .ADF) doesn't exist. Now I am confused, what are the slots inside my computer called? COM0-2? or COM1-3 or COM1, COM2, LPT1, LPT2 or what? Can anyone shed some new light on this? BTW, the simple solutions with copy, echo, mode, and hunks of assembler code failed to do the trick. I could really use a good hunk of Turbo C 1.5 code to do the trick. I don't know TC well enough yet to do something like this.
