Readme.txt file for FLASH.EXE

This program is used for loading code into Simple Technology
56K SimpleJack modems; it requires the Windows operating system
(Win 3.1 or Win95 and Wn98).

NOTE: This software will not run on Windows NT or the Mac operating
systems!

Preliminaries:

1)  If you are running Win95, especially on a laptop computer,
    you must check for the power-saving feature and disable it
    before attempting a code upgrade.

2)  From the main window (desktop) go to start/settings/control panel/
    power/PC-Card modems.

3)  If the power-saving feature exists, make sure the box before
    'Turn off PC-Card modem when not in use' is NOT checked.

Upgrade:

1)  If you are reading this on a disk sent to you by Simple Technology
    you may run FLASH.EXE directly from the disk or copy it to
    your hard drive. To run it from this disk proceed to step 5.
   
    If you are reading this after having downloaded from the Simple
    Technology WEB site or BBS, continue to step 2.

2)  Create a directory, SJ_UPGRD, for example.

3)  Copy the contents of the disk ( or the EXE file) to the new
    directory.

4)  If you copied the executable to the new directory, run it. The
    directory will contain FLASH.EXE and one or more files
    with the .HEX extension. Set the attributes of FLASHLDR.HEX
    to HIDDEN. (in DOS: attrib +h flashldr.hex; in WIN 3.X:
    from the file manger click on the file, flashldr.hex, click
    on FILES, PROPERTIES, HIDDEN, OK; in WIN95: from the Explorer
    click on the file, flashldr.hex, click the right mouse button,
    click on PROPERTIES, HIDDEN, APPLY, OK). This prevents the file
    from being shown when selecting firmware files. If you accidently
    load it into the modem, the modem will be RUINED.

5)  Verify your modem is installed and running properly.

6)  Run FLASH.EXE.

7)  When prompted, select the code to be loaded. DO NOT SELECT
    'FLASHLDR.HEX'.

    - p12297a.hex: k56flex code supporting data, fax, and voice
      (answering machine)

    - p60598a.hex: k56flex/V.90 code supporting data, fax, and voice

8)  Upon completion the modem must be un-powered for the new code
    to operate properly. This may be done by restarting your computer
    or removing and re-inserting the modem.

9)  After changing the firmware your computer may not recognize the
    modem and will ask for the installation disk. The disk contains
    new INF files which support the firmware. When the operating
    system asks for the INF files, insert this disk and select 'Disk
    provided by the manufacturer', or use the 'BROWSE' option to select
    the directory into which you installed FLASH.EXE

10) Internet users that connect with dial-up networking win need to
    change the connection to specify the correct modem. To do this
    click on "My Computer" then click on dial-up networking. This will
    show the connection icons that have been created for your internet 
    service providers. Hightlight the one in question and the go to
    file and pull down to properties. Down at the bottom it will read
    "connect using", this will need to be changed to Simple Technology
    V.90 SimpleJack. After this is done you are now ready to connect at
    the new V.90 standard. You may need to verify that your internet 
    service provider has upgraded to this standard. If they have not
    done so, and are at one of the previous standards (KFLEX or X2)
    then the connection is limited to V.34 and/or 33.6BPS.

11) To verify that the modem has been upgraded to V.90, a test can be 
    run to see code version. Go to control panel and double click on
    modems. This will show the current modems installed on your
    computer system. Next go to diagnostics tab at the top. This will
    show which comm port the modem is assaigned to. Hightlight this
    port and click on "More Info". After a few seconds a screen will
    come up and show the properties of the modem. At the bottom of the
    screen the it will list a series of ATI commands from 1-7. The one
    is question is the ATI3 command. The responce should read as
    follows:

    KFLEX   CODE  =   p12297a

    V.90    CODE  =   p60598a,0,19
