This operating system overlays DOS, in that you can still use all the standard DOS commands when TSX-32 has been loaded. There are a few settings you need to watch out for, to assure that there are no conflicts when installing the BBS package: * If you have any SCSI devices in your system, remember to write down the IRQ setting or settings the devices are using. * Remove HIMEM.SYS from your CONFIG.SYS if it is installed. * Choose "YES" to X-Modem, Y-Modem, and Z-Modem protocols. * If you are using a multiplexor, configure the multiplexor section according to the settings on the card. After installing the operating system, run RUNTSX to start TSX-32. After loaded, type TSGEN. You will be asked for a GEN filename. Press the ENTER key. The TSGEN menu will come up. Select `Set Tuning Parameters', then `All parameters'. Make sure the following categories are set as follows: DOBBS 1 DOTSXTERM 1 NEWTEMPFILES 1 ZMODEM 1 (Allows users to use Z-Modem transfer protocol.) Press until you reach the TSGEN Main Menu. Next select `Manage Equipment List'. For your modem settings, select TTB for COM1, TTC for COM2, etc. Then press `U' for Unit settings. Set as shown below: SPEED 38400 TERMTYPE Set this to your preference. We suggest ANSI. PARITY NONE BITS 8 PHONE Y AUTOBAUD N START Y LOGON Y CMDFILE SY:BBS.CMD HANDSHAKING RTSCTS BOARDHS Y ORINGSIZE 3600 FIXEDSPEED Y MRESET AT&F1^M Now press four times. Reboot your system and reload TSX-32. The operating system will now be loaded. ______________________________________________________________________ Manufacturer/Support S&H Computer Systems, Inc 1027 17th Ave South Nashville, Tennessee 37212-2299 (615) 327-3670 - Support (615) 321-5929 - FAX sandh.com - Telnet BBS info@sandh.com - Email TSX-BBS: DIP Switches: 3,5, and 8 DOWN (ON) CHANGE PORT: Port settings are configured by choosing the appropriate TT from the list. If you have a modem on COM1, you would edit TTB, and if the modem is on COM2, you would edit TTC. These are both set as active unless there is a `!' in front of it. These ports can be toggled on or off with the `I' command in the device list screen. CHANGE IRQ: Run TSGEN and press Enter when asked for the GEN filename. Select `Manage Equipment List', then highlight TTB if you want to configure COM1, and press Enter. The IRQ value is set by changing the INTERRUPT value. INIT STRING: Make sure you are at the TSX-32 operating system main prompt(i.e. Like a DOS prompt). Type HOST TTB0. To test the modem, make sure it is connected to the telephone line and type ATQ0E1. This should return an `OK'. Then type AT&B1&H1&A3&C1&D2S0=1&W. Make sure that S0=1 is in the init string, for the software does not answer incoming phone calls. It relies on the modem to pick up the call. This will return an `OK". You will only have to set this once per modem. When done, type CTRL-\ then X. TERMINAL MODE: This is a BBS program. If you want to use TSX-32 Terminal, type HOST TTB0. You will then be dropped into terminal mode on COM1. Note: This BBS program runs in the background. You will not see anything running on the screen. You have the ability to run other tasks on the system, without interfering with the operation of the BBS. If the software is set to do so, you can open the SYSOP menu to monitor users while on-line.
