John:
I have been using PROCOMM ver. 2.4.2 on BIONET
for two years now without significant difficulty. In contrast
to Dave Kristofferson's suggestion, I connect to BIONET using
7-bit words, 1 stop-bit and even parity through TELENET and
COMPUSERV gateways and directly to the BIONET modem. Of course,
when I upload or download files via KERMIT protocol, I use a
command file to temporarily reset to 8-bits, 1 stop-bit, no parity.
In my terminal setup parameters, I emulate a VT-100, set
line wrap to off and scroll to on. I set Kermit protocol to a packet
size of 80, binary filetype and control quote to ASCII 35 and a 1-byte
checksum as the error-checking option. In the general setup table
I have screen write set to direct (using a Zenith PC XT-compatible),
the translate table to off, and a 25 ms character pacing rate. In
the ASCII transfer table I have line pacing set to 0 and linefeed
translations stripped.
My bet is that the upper ASCII characters which you see echoed
derive from the network gateway to BIONET which you are attached to.
I suggest that you try direct connection one time to see if I am correct.
If I can help you further, please let me know. As far as I am concerned,
PROCOMM is the finest terminal emulator for PCs currently available.
