A blog to collect some general notes and tips while I work on (mostly old) computers.
When using the TRS-80 Model 100 with The Old Net Serial Wifi Modem, set the terminal to 300 baud, 8 Bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, and Software Flow Control.
"Software Flow Control" is sometimes called "XON/XOFF flow control", in contrast to "hardware flow control" like RTS/CTS and DTR/DSR.
On the TRS-80 M100, select TELCOM. For RS-232C communications, the configuration description consists of a five character string of the format rwpbs, where:
To set up for use the wifi modem:
stat M8N1E
And then hit (Term - F4) Puts TELCOM into the Terminal Mode. And then you can do your AT commands.
Note: On the wifi modem the baud rate is set to 600 baud perhaps: Hold the Flash button down on the modem for 5 seconds and it will reset to 300 baud (one time).Â
