Re: AppleWin modeming trouble



OOA,

While I've not used modem software with AppleWin, I -have- printed to an Imagewriter II printer from it. You DO need to change the settings in AppleWin to reflect the PC COM port you wish to use, but furthermore, you need to tell ZLink what kind of port you have (if it's possible -- ProTerm does, especially if it can't find the right kind of serial hardware you set it for), which in AppleWin I -believe- (don't quote me on this) is a standard Apple SSC emulation.

And again, while it's not a modem per se, the printing with Print Shop went fabulously. (The sign is still hanging from my roommate's door. ;) Hope this helps...

Take Care!
Josef

I've never been much into emulators versus actual hardware, but tonight I
tried to use a ZLink DSK image with the latest release of AppleWin.  It
failed miserably.  ZLink did not even appear to start.  The disk image
booted to a menu, but when I selected ZLink, the program appeared to try to
load and I froze on a "black screen of death".   I know this could be for
any number of reasons - bad disk image, com port settings off, whatever -
but before I try to research it, I was hoping some of you might mention
whether you've had positive experiences using a PC-platform A2 emulator with
a modem.
