Program Options

Network Parameters (-E)

The Sinclair program allows you to edit
individual parameters on a page by entering
the parameter’s number on the screen. At
any time you can press ? to get context
sensitive help. The W option steps you
through each parameter in the program.

When you enter SINCLAIR -E, a list of

the parameters appears on the screen.

Note: line item #10 will only accept 2 digits.
If 3 are entered, only the first 2 will be used.

Logon ID

If a logon ID is required, it is entered in the
terminal ID field before the terminal ID number. For example, in Terminal ID: *99997777774314, *9999 is
the logon ID; 7777774 is the location number; and 314 is the terminal ID.

Fallback

Fallback is used when the Network is down. If fallback is enabled in the Sinclair Menu, the card will be
approved and the authorization will be Fallbk.

The printout for that transaction looks like the following:

When the network comes back up, the fallback transactions will be sent to Sinclair. The merchant is held
responsible for any UN-APPROVED transactions.

Phone Numbers and Modem

Refer to your modem users manual for information on the phone number string. You can usually find it
under the ATDT command.

If your modem is compatible with the old Hayes 1200, Hayes 2400 Smartmodem or Hayes OPTIMA

and Hayes Accura 33.6 modem then you only need to set the Modem type.

If your modem is not compatible with the above list, then you must consult your modem’s user manual.

You may need to change the initialization parameters to get your modem to work properly. The data entered
here is added to the end of the Hayes 1200 base initialization string. (Note: Hayes modems accept a
maximum of 40 characters in their command strings).

First set parameter 3 to Hayes 1200. The additional parameters can be then entered in parameter 4.

These parameters are added onto the Hayes 1200 string listed below. Any changes made to modem
parameters using the User Modem string will override the base string’s value. For example, if parameter 4
contains M0 then the modem speaker will always be off. Normally the speaker is on until a connection to the
host has been made (M1).
