v2.70 - 02/07/18 Firmware Update
#1
Tonight I powercycled my WiModem232 and saw there was a firmware update.  After applying that update, my modem stopped sending any data to my terminal's screen.  (Typed commands didn't echo, the answers to those commands didn't print out, and when connected to a BBS, the data being sent by the BBS did not appear on the screen)

I found that to resolve this issue (on my Apple //e with a Super Serial Card) that I needed to configure my modem to &C0 and *D1.  Once I did that, I was again able to see output from the modem on my screen.  I saved those settings and haven't had any issues since then.  (Previous to this firmware update, I had to use &C0 and *D0)

I assume this difference has to do with the following changes:
  • Changed default DCD polarity to be LOW for WiModem232.
  • Fixed AT&C1 and AT*D to output the correct DCD state while in COMMAND.
I am truly mystified as to why my computer doesn't want to play nice with the modem when it's set to actually track DCD via &C1.
