Quick Link II Fax  (250-3027B)  Freeing the COM Port   Faxback Doc. # 3225

The Data Comm portion of Quick Link II Fax has control of the COM port
(and your modem or fax/modem) whenever the terminal window is ON-LINE,
even if behind other windows or minimized.  On some systems, this can
interfere with auto-dialing and other modem programs.  Therefore, Quick
Link II Fax can release the COM port temporarily for other programs by
doing one of the following:

    Clicking the OFF-LINE button on the button bar.  This removes the
    terminal window and releases the COM port.  Clicking ON-LINE restores
    the terminal window.

    Choose OFF-LINE from the CONNECT menu.  This also removes the terminal
    window and releases the COM port.  Choosing ON-LINE from the CONNECT
    menu restores the terminal window.

    Close the Quick Link II Fax main application by exiting it.

If the Fax Manager is running, it may also have access to the COM port,
interfering with other modem programs.
