CPC121592 241.DOC The Complete Communicator for DOS Answering in One Ring This document is provided as "For your information" and as is. Neither The Complete PC nor any of it's employees assume any responsibility for consequences resulting from the use of the following information nor can the Complete PC technical support provide help with this document. The user of said information does so at his or her own risk. To change Communicator to make it answer on one ring, you must modify the CONFIGCC.CAM file using a hex editor such as the one found in PC-TOOLS, or use DEBUG. Please make a backup copy of this file before making any changes. A portion of the CONFIGCC.CAM file is listed below, with the byte to be changed underlined. The display shows it set for 2 rings. Change this byte to 01 for one ring. Note: Do NOT set the value to 00, as this will cause Communicator to never answer the phone! Type debug at the C:\CC\CAM subdirectory, followed by the filename CONFIGCC.CAM as shown below. You will see a dash (-) mark. Type D and hit return. You should now see a hex map similar to the one below. This example is using DEBUG and the last column has been disregarded. The first column is a random memory address and should also be disregarded. These numbers may or may not match the numbers on your screen. The key value you are looking for is the value underlined in the above example.

Reboot your PC. Now the Communicator will answer on one ring. Note: You must evaluate your system and needs carefully before changing Communicator to one ring. The lower limit of two rings is set purposely because random fluctuations in line voltage can cause a false ring, The minimal setting of two rings prevents Communicator from picking up the line in response to a false signal.
