WINFAX PRO

        Fax Bulletin: WINFAX PRO & USR's New Sportster & Courier Fax
        Modems

        Question: Can my customers who want to send and receive faxes
        from Windows use WINFAX PRO with a Sportster or Courier fax
        modem, and how?

        Answers: Yes! WINFAX PRO 2.0 provides an EIA-578 Service Class 1
        type fax modem interface that is compatible with Sportster and
        Courier fax modems.

        WINFAX PRO 2.0 installation prompts the user for the port on which
        the fax modem is installed.  If this is chosen correctly, the
        WINFAX installation program will identify a Sportster or Courier
        fax modem as a Class 1 device and automatically select the correct
        driver. The modem must be turned on for this to work.

        If the user doesn't have the modem connected when installing WINFAX
        PRO, "Class 1 Send/Receive" can be selected from the list in the
        "Fax Device" window. Although there is a listing for a U.S.
        Robotics WorldPort 2496, WINFAX will NOT work correctly with
        Sportster or Courier fax modems if the WorldPort 2496 is selected.

        If the fax modem is not turned on, WINFAX will ask you to select
        from a list of supported fax modems.  In this case, select any fax
        modem from the list, and when you return to the "Driver Setup"
        window, you can then select "Class 1 Send/Receive."

        If you selected "Class 1 Send/Receive" during installation, WINFAX
        PRO now knows that you have a Class 1 fax modem attached. However,
        every modem uses slightly different commands for settings, so
        you'll need to enter an "Init String." Just follow these steps:

        - From the WINFAX PRO Administrator select "FAX" from the menu.

        - Within the FAX drop down menu select "Setup..."

        - Within the WINFAX Setup window select the "More..." button.

        - Within the Fax/Modem Setup window enter "&H2&I2" in the "Init
        String:" box. This will set the modem up to use Software
        handshaking for data flow control.

        - Within the Fax/Modem Setup and the WINFAX Setup windows select
        the "OK" buttons.

        Delrina Technology, Inc., which manufactures WINFAX, is currently
        adding Sportster and Courier fax modems to their selection list for
        WINFAX PRO installation. Soon you'll be able to select from up to
        eight different USR fax modems during the WINFAX PRO installation
        and the proper fax modern initialization string will be added
        automatically.
