(Appendix 4)
If you plan to use a KAM with this software, you must make some changes. For WinFBB: Use interface 6 in PORT.SYS. For DosFBB: Before you start the BBS, you must load the RS232 driver. You must use ESSKAM or ESS (ESS must be version 1.10 or higher). Do not use another driver such as COMBIOS or MBBIOS. Run it like this: ESSKAM 1 (Com1, Address and IRQ = defaults) ESSKAM 1 03F8 4 (Com1, Address=03F8Hex, IRQ4) The KAM must be in the right baudrate, and in hostmode. You put it into hostmode with these commands: INTF HOST PERM There is a special format for INITTNCx.SYS. For HF, use this: UNPROTO MAIL/ MONITOR ON/ MCOM ON/ MCON ON/ MRESP ON/ PID ON/ RETRY 15/ RESPTIM 0/ FRACK 2/ CHECK 30/ HID OFF/ For VHF use this: UNPROTO /MAIL MONITOR /ON MCOM /OFF MCON /ON MRESP /ON PID /ON RETRY /8 CHECK /30 HID /OFF As you can see, the position of the "/" is very important for HF/VHF ! In PORT.SYS you must use 1 for VHF and 2 for HF in MultCh. You must also use K in "Type host-mode". # # Same number of lines as number of TNCs. # #TNC NbCh Com MultCh Pacl Maxfr NbFwd MxBloc M/P-Fwd Mode Freq 1 4 1 1 230 4 1 10 30/60 UKYW 144.675 2 1 1 2 80 1 1 6 15/60 UKYW HF #
