RE: FAX Functionality at R510

Hi Jack,

We upgraded to V5R1 in the middle of last year and did not experience any
problems with the fax adapter and/or Cobwebb.  We have since moved from
Cobwebb to Quadrant for faxing.

Although the fax adapter is no longer supported by IBM it still works at
5.1.  IBM has done away with SPD type cards/bus, which the fax adapter used,
and has gone to all PCI type cards/slots.

You can also still use SPD cards at V5R2 except on 4XX and 5XX systems.

The replacement for the Integrated Fax Adapter is the PCI Integrated Analog
Modem.  You should be able to find information on it at the IBM web site.

Subject: [SYSTEM21] FAX Functionality at R510 

We are preparing to upgrade our 510 from R450 to R510.  We have been
using the integrated fax adaptor and Cob Web software for faxing
purchase orders to our customers.  According to IBM the integrated fax
adaptor 'is not disabled in R510 but is not supported'.  We are also not
sure of the status of the Cob Web software.    Has anyone else upgraded
from this configuration and did everything still work normally after the
upgrade????

Thanks, 
jeh
