Subject: MDM72X LOGLP1 BUG
MDM728 AND 729 BOTH HAVE A PROBLEM IN THE LOGLP1 ROUTINE
THAT CAUSES THE SENDINGCES TO FOUL UP IN
SOME CASES. THIS WAS DUE TO A CHANGE THAT ATTEMPTED TO
SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF NOT SHOWING PASSWORDS THAT ARE NOT
ECHOED BY THE REMOTE ON THE SCREEN. NEITHE THE CODE IN
728/729 OR THE PRIOR CODE ARE CORRECT.
TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, JUST DELETE THE "CALL LOGLP1" IN
THE LOGLP ROUTINE AND FOR THOSE WITH THE SOURCE CODE
YOU CAN DELETE THE LOGLP1 ROUTINE SINCE NOTHING ELSE
CALLS IT. FOR THOSE WITH ONLY THE .COM FILE JUST PUT
3 NOP'S BEGINNING AT 1E56H USING DDT AND DO A SAVE 73
MDM7XX.COM. RECOMMEND USING MDM728 DUE TO OTHER PROBLEMS
THAT I HAVE DENOTED IN PREVIOUS MESSAGE. THE CALL TO
LOGLP1 WAS ATTEMPTING TO GET ECHOS THAT WERE BEING RETURNED
AND PICKED UP BY THE MICRO ANYWAY. SILLY!
