direct connection

[richard]

hello everyone before i was searching for a solution regarding the connection true serial connection using Direct connect it was transfering but there is messege stating "invalid entry" I've done already the given solution but it is still not communicating well. The Pagegate is accepting the message thus it is not processing on the terminal. by the way Im using Zetron Model 2200.

when you use the the modem connection it is working. is there any other option to use direct connection to keep the message more faster.

thank you and more power to all

Can you post a direct connection attempt from your Dialer log (PGDial1.log)?

Could be that the serial port on the Zetron is not configured for TAP, but is configured for Manual entry.

The dialer log clearly indicates that the terminal's serial port is configured for Manual Entry Mode.

I can't help you with the actual settings for the Terminal, although I would guess that the "01" at the end of the line hex below, be changed to "00" (for the port that you are using).

0D 00 02 1E 01 ; force manual entry mode 0=no, 1=yes (8a4+)
