Hi All,

Well, from looking at more stuff on the net, it looks like this ISDN thing
I have has a setting for a serial interface.. When set to the EIA-232 mode.
The tables for pin-outs look like this.. 

 PIN  CABLE   AMIGA 3000T BOOK                    MOTOROLA UTA220k BOOK
              A3000T   RS232   DESCRIPTION

  8     C      DCD      DCD   Carrier Detect      Data Carrier Detect (DCD)
  15    NC              TXC                       Transmit Clock (TC)
  17    NC              RXC                       Receive Clock (RC)
  18    NC     AUDI           Audio Into A3000T   Local Loopback (LL)
  20    C      DTR      DTR   Data Terminal Ready Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
  21    NC              SQD                       Remote Loopback (RL)
  22    C      RI       RI    Ring Indicator      Ring Indicator (RI)
  25    NC                                        Test Mode 

The Motorola book says that the remaining pins have "No Electrical Connection"
So I guess I don't need to worry about what they do on the Amiga.. 

The 2 and 3 pins seem to be correct with send and receive being handled
correctly.. 

Modem Cable has pins 15, 17, 18, 21, and 25 disconnected, so I guess I don't
have to worry about the loopback, testmode, or amiga audio stuff.. I suppose
the only problem will be if the ISDN unit "NEEDS" the transmit/receive clock
signals on pins 15 and 17.. 

So It looks like I can hook this thing up to a Serial port, and not have to
worry about anything blowing up..  I'm pretty sure that there are not going
to be any SANA-II device drivers for this.. I doubt if motorola would spend 
the time to make them.. 

Are there SANA-II drivers for the serial port?? Is the Amiga Serial port fast
enough??.. Should a generic terminal program correctly handle using these
pins correctly?? 

I Have hooked the UTA220k up to the amiga, and it looks like it will do the
little things I can test, without a line, like turning on and off echo etc..
If I use ATalkIII it comes up and says no DSR.. This makes sense, because the
Motorola book says it will change the DSR "After" it hooks up to the providers
hardware.. The book was very clear about not hooking this thing into a line,
until the unit is configured properly for the line.. 

So I guess at this point, the next step is "What software do I need to put
this TCP stuff to the serial port" then I can get the ISDN line hooked up
and try and figure out how to get it working..

Thanks For all the help and info.. I feel like I'm lost here with this stuff.
I still may just put a pentium system together for this part of the system,
but on principle, I want to have the entire network, phone/fax/voice/web/ftp
info systems all working on Amigas with real-time info handled by Arexx, SBase
and other Amiga programs..
