Re: Null Modem driver for GBBS?



Well, to tell the bbs to reset, I drop the DCD line, and the bbs resets.
Then it sends modem commands and waits for a response...my problem is, that
when I drop the DCD line, the Gateway program never sees the AT command.
Even if I immediately bring the DCD line back up, it's too late, GBBS has
already sent the AT command and is listening for the reply, and i don't want
to just blindly send 0's to the BBS assuming that it received them...there
could come a situation where it didn't see the 0 and continues to just sit
there...I'd rather have the two talk back and forth.
